Hi there from RSA
Can anyone please tell me if it is necessary to retorque the cylinder head on the i6 240 engine after a while or when hot? If so, what are the specs?

Thank You in advance

If you are dealing with a newly re-built motor, it is always a good idea to re-torque the heads after running the motor. Let it cool down over night and re-torque in the original sequence. You will then be good to go. If the motor has been running for years, it isn't necessary. I have been in touch with another of your countrymen. He is in Cape Town. His name is Ladwig. If you ever run across him, tell him hello for me.
Good luck with your truck.

Thanks Skip4274. If I come across a Ladwig from Cape Town I shall certainly find out if he knows you.

 

Howdy all, finaly back online, my ISP giving me hassels, could not log onto ford-trucks.com

Looking forward to sharing info and ideas again.
