Can anyone give me a clear and simple procedure for doing up the headbolts on my energy engine as the haynes seems confusing as it uses an angle gague and i dont have one. Don't worry im not completely thick i just think the process could be more clearly explained Wink

I'll be using a torque wrench.

Thanks

and make sure you tighten them from the middle-outwards in a spiral!
