Hi Groovers
Can someone tell me the correct torque for head gasket stud bolts om a 998 A series unleaded 99H engine?
Haynes appears to say two numbers....I thought it was 50 PSI ....am I being a git??
cheers

Nope the Haynes isn't lying there is two numbers

The reason why is that the cylinder head nuts should be tightened in stages in the sequence shown (ignore A&B)

stage 1: 34Nm or 25ldf ft
stage 1: 68Nm or 50ldf ft
