Title: Engine Torque settings Post by: rutley1 on 24 September, 2020, 10:09:41 AM Can anyone tell me the correct torque settings for the engine re-assembly please ? This should include big ends and main bearing bolts. Many thanks in anticipation.
Title: Re: Engine Torque settings Post by: Kari on 24 September, 2020, 04:24:09 PM AFAIK no torque settings have ever been published for the Augusta engine.
I suggest the following: Big-end bolts: +/- 25 Nm to align the nuts for the split pin. There are no main bearing bolts. The centre support has a conical location bolt on the R/H side and is pinched by a 10 mm nut on a stud accessable throught the oil drain. Torque as by standard practice. Rear main bearing carrier: 6 ea 10 mm studs. Again torque by standard practice, secure by tab washers. Cylinder head bolts: for my engine I use 85 Nm working up in several steps starting at 30Nm. Tightening order x-wise starting in the middle. I believe the club library has a translation of "Conseils Pratiques" which gives a good insight of the works on an Augusta/Belna. Regards Karl |
