I am building my engine in the hack and need the torque settings for the big end bearings and head bolts please

Vectra 2.2
2001
Engine code Z220SE

My auto data is shit and keeps crashing



Many thanks guys

 

All bolts require NEW to be fitted

HEAD

Stage 1 = 30 Nm
Stage 2 = +90 deg
Stage 3 = +60deg
Stage 4 = +15deg
Stage 5 = All M8's 35Nm (after the above completed first)

Mains

Stage 1 = 20Nm
Stage 2 = +70deg
Stage 3 = +15deg

Big ends

Stage 1 = 25Nm
Stage 2 = +50deg
Stage 3 = +50deg
Stage 4 = +25deg

Hope this helps !

 

hello mate just had a quick look and i dont get a 2001 z22soe, ive got 2000-2002...2002-2008 z22se and the headbolt torque is 30nm then 90'..then 60'..then 15'..then m8 35nm

the big end bearings are 25nm then 50'+50'+25'

the main end are 20nm then 70'+15'


hope this helps mate

(by the way ' is degrees)

Dan

 

Thanks alot lads and i can get the fecking thing put back together now

 

Oh and dont ever buy one as the rings are soft as shit on them

 

hahaha no worries mate... but saying that my sister has just bought a 2.2 zafira today so im guessing probably have the same problems!! good luck mate

 

Danny i can tell you that it will either snap the chain or the rings will go mate. Mine has 75k on it with full history Looked all over the net and everyone has had the same problems with the engines.

Tell her to sell it asap..... lol and if she hears a rattle when its cold get the chain done asap as they tend to snap not long after.
