Engine torque settings for a 1995 fireblade rrs bottom end only, top end is still bolted together.thanks.

• Drain the coolant and dispose of properly,
  Remove the clamp on the upper radiator hose where it connects to the elbow on the engine block.
  Remove the hose from this connection
  Remove the 3 bolts on the elbow that the hose was on, where they connect to the engine block.
• Remove the elbow, this is the housing.
• Clean the surfaces that the housing covered using a razor blade.
• Replace the thermostat with a new one.
• Replace the gasket
• Torque the bolts for the housing to the right torque.
• Replace the hose and clamp.
• Fill the Radiator with NEW coolant. Leave cap off
• Start the engine and squeeze the upper radiator hose several times to remove air.
• Watch for the level in the radiator to drop
• Add coolant as needed, till the level is even with the inside lip on the radiator neck WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT.
• Put new radiator cap on.
• Stop engine and drain the reservoir tank for old coolant.
• Replace the coolant with new coolant.

For the V6 3.2L engine it is 6 - 2 - 3 - 7 on top, and 5 - 1 - 4- 8 on the bottom. These are M11x1.5 bolts and should be torqued to 47lb-ft.These bolts should not be re-used, only replaced.

The three M8x1.25 bolts on the left end are sequence numbers 11 - 10 - 9 from top to bottom and should be torqued to 15lb-ft.

Reference model 1997 Rodeo

Hi and welcome to FixYa. I am Kelly. These torques are from the Kohler Service manual for the
CV11-16,
CV460-465,
CV490-495
engine.

There are 5 bolts.... as you look at the bolts there should be 3 on the left side

Bolt 1 is the center (offset bolt)
Bolt 2 is upper right
Bolt 3 bottom left
Bolt 4 upper left
Bolt 5 lower right.

Torque them in the sequence above... to 15 Ft lbs. or 180 inch lbs
reset your torque wrench and then torque them to 30 Ft lbs or 360 inch lbs.

Rocker arms center nuts (called mounting screws) are first torqued to 55 inch lbs then to 100 inch lbs.

Then to set the valve lash you back off the set screw lock nut torque and set the valve lash to .003 - .005 final set screw lock nut torque is 65 inch lbs. Engine must be at TDC i.e piston all the way to the top to make the correct adjustments.

Thanks for using FixYa.

This is for the 3VZ-E SOHC 12V engine, 2959cc catalytic. Sure its the same engine as in the pickup.----------
Stage 1 - 34nm--------- stage 2 - tighten by 90 degrees-------- stage 3 - tighten by 90 degrees-------- -------
the sequence is, with flywheel on your right, looking down on the engine...
--top row of bolts on top bank - top Left to top right bolts 1,2,3,4----------------- bottom row of bolts, on top bank - bottom left to bottom right bolts 3,4,5,6.------------ Top row of bolts on Bottom bank bolts 1,2,3,4------------- bottom row of bolts on bottom bank bolts 5,6,7,8------------ sequence is (top bank) 7,2,6,3,5,4,1,8-------- --------(bottom bank) 2,7,3,6,4,5,8--------
Hopefully this comes out tidy on the other end.

Oil the gasket first with engine oil - let it soak for a minute or two (its in the manual!) First stage 40nm - second stage 70nm - third stage 100nm - Tightening sequence - looking from top of engine with the flywheel on the left, top set of bolts from top left to top right bolts 1,2,3,4,5--------- Bottom set of bolts bottom left to bottom right 6,7,8,9,10-------- tightening sequence is - 8,3,7,4,9,2,10,1,6,5 -

It is recommended that you buy the bolts along with the gasket. Did the car overheat and was run in an overheated condition for more than a mile ? An overheated engine tends to warp the heads and it has to be re-cut smooth. The bolts tend to come loose with time. If not replaced. Torque is 45 ft lbs, then 65 lbs , then way up to 90 lbs in sequence starting at the middle bottom 1 then top side 2 to the right 3 top ,4 bottom, then go to the other side of the number one bolt and the top bolt is 5, bottom 6, then way down to the end at the back of the head is number 7 top , 8 bottom...... Back to the front of the head and top is 9, bottom is 10.

This is for the 10 main bolts, yes?
51Nm or 38 ft-lb.
the two 8mm flange bolts are 24NM /17 ft-lb

According to my haynes manual for G-S reg, 1989-1998 it goes as follows,
Stage 1:- Tighten all bolts by hand until bolt heads just contact cyl. head.
Stage 2:-Tighten all bolts to 40Nm or 30lb ft.
Stage 3:-Angle tighten all bolts a further 60 degrees.
Stage 4:-Angle tighten all bolts again a further 60 degrees.
Stage 5:- M12 x 140mm bolts ONLY angle tighten a further 20 degrees.
Hope this helps everyone, sorry it seems longwinded but that is how it's written in the manual.
