I need to take this peice off but I don't know what the bolts need to be torqued down to and what order to put them back in. Here's the peice.



Can anyone help?

 

I think like 10ft lbs. Hand tight

Does it matter what order?

 

it's 7.2 ft -lbs According the helms no order for tighten sequence but for the rocker arms yes.

Thanks a lot guys. Oh and by the way this isn't for the bolts that holds down the cam plate, it's the bolts that hold that peice in. Just in case you guys misunderstood me.

My bad, there's a torque sequence for the plate including those two bolts.

13 9 5 1 3 7 11


14 10 6 2 4 8 12

We'll I have the plate off already. Those 2 bolts all the way on the right hold the cam plate in. Now that little arch on the bottom right thats near the cam gear. I think there's 2-3 bolts holding that in. Does it say in the manual if there's a sequence to take it off?



I tried circling it but it's kind of hard to see with the cam plate still on.

yes those are part of the #11 & #12 torque sequence for the exhaust side. torque sequence is the same way on the intake side.

from #1-#10 the torqu spec is 20 ft-lbs and the last #11-#14 is 7.2 ft-lbs.

I must not be clear. I have the exhaust cam plate off right now, not looking to put it back on. I'm looking to take that plate that the cam plate bolts into off. Sorry if I'm confusing you.

Ohh OK, well to take them off then just reverse the torque sequence remove from #14 first then #13 then #12, etc.... Install is the opposite #1, #2, etc....

 

K, I went outside and took a pic of it.



The peice that I circled is what I need to take off. I just realized that there's only 1 bolt and I don't even know if that's holding it in. How can I take it off?

 

All the bolts that are holding it is off. Just use a rubber mallet and tap it on the side to break the seal and maybe carefully rock it to help it unseat itself, that's it pretty easy.

Oh ok cool. Thanks so much for the help man. Should I use hondabond to reseal it?

 

No don't put any hondabond or any sealent on it(It could get caught in the oil passages and be blocked which could cause the engine to starve from oil). just before you install it just give it a light coat of engine oil and that's it.

 

You're the man. Thanks again.

 

Not a problem, that's what HT is here for
