Hi, I've had to remove the cylinder head from a 99' terios 16v, with an engine code of HC-EJ, can anybody please help me with the head bolt tightening torques? I can't seem to find it anywhere, has anyone else had a head gasket failure on these engines?
Many thanks.
auto data
there is a way to get the torque figures
.what you need to do is go to your local garage and ask if they have an autodata book
,these are snap on books so very good.i will try to get some details for you.cheers sportyjay
