RE: [DMCForum] Angle Torque... what the hell?

["Travis Goodwin" <tgoodwin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Of course I don't. That's why I'm asking!

It is angle torque. I'm looking at the manual for installing the head
bolts
on the B28F. It says, and I quote:

Angle torque cylinder head bolts
1. loosen all bolts in sequence
2. tighten all bolts 15-20 Nm in sequence
3. angle torque 113-117 degrees in sequence. Use protractor 5098. Use
rocker
arm shaft as a line of reference when torquing.
