    Hello looking for for the above

    Hayes seems to pass over this for the kr 16 engine

    8 valve mentions 65nm

    searched and found abf 60nm plus 90o (autodata)

    but cannot find anything for kr engine

    Thanks

    mk3s were fitted with the stretch type bolts, requiring additional 90deg. To tell them apart mk3 had thread all the way.
