I would go as far as checking for possible loose head bolts with a straight forward torque check to spec. If I find any reason to back out the bolts for reqtorque: I'd replace the bolts and head gaskets first. Then torque to the two steps as Brian described.

You could, I suppose, pick a torque value and run down all the bolts and see if any of them move. If none move, raise the torque a bit until the first one breaks loose. But, even in this case, where are you???

Brian,
In that case I stand corrected  Got to admit I have not consulted the manuals regarding this procedure. Thanks for the great tips!  Quote:
