Watermota settings

[alb40]

Can anyone tell me the settings for a pre crosslow 998cc ford watermota engine for

- the cylinder head bolts torque
- the settings for the valve clearances

plus any other info that might be useful for fitting new head gasket

Thanks,

Alex

All those 105E engines had the same valve clearances

Inlet 18 thou. Exhaust 22 thou. As to the headbolt torques, you'll have to wait till I get home and look. 105 lb. ft seems to ring a bell but don't use this until I confirm

Cylinder head torque 65 - 70 lb./ft. (8.98 - 9.67 kg./m.)
Valve clearances (cold) 0.015in. (0.38mm)

Should have read your post more carefully. The figures I quoted were for the WaterMota Sea Panther diesel. Apologies.
