I'm guessing its the same as a xe which is on the SBD website if you need a picture, certainly not something I've ever looked into on a YB

same order as when doing any other head bolts, ive always done it as below



however ive heard people say to do it this way



case of 6 of 1, half a dozen of the other imo

I'm sure it wont be any different to the xe.

Don't forget to retorque them after

Conflicting info

IMO as long as you stick to that pattern there shouldn't be a problem

Thats not as important tbh, aslong as you end up with them all the same on your final torque up then it will be fine.

so if i end up with them all at 1nm, that won't be a problem? anyway, weren't you supposed to be coming over today?

vroooom ptssssh

As said, once you do one sequence, go over them from again the start as they will all (mostly all, mainly middle ones) will take another good nip!

JonnyBravo

You know what I mean.

If YB's are anything like xe's then you will find loads of variations in the tightening sequence.

If its 100lbft for example and you go 25/50/75/100 then that is fine.

If you read above I also said I'm come and see you tomorrow ! I spent today in bed mate as I've been a bit rough
