Cam cover change

[kingston]

Hello all,

Just quickly, been reading the manual concerning the changing of cam covers and the need for a torque wrench, is this relly required or will the max 'gun' strength surfice?

Also, it needs to be torqued up to 39n/m, is this alot or...?

And yes im too cheap to go and buy one :xcheers:

torque wrench not necessary at all, just nip them up tight with a 3/8 ratchet..

39 NM is really not very tight!
