Conrod nuts torque


Recommended Posts

hi, am I right in thinking con rod nuts torque is 50nm, because I have fitted new standard bearing shells well lubed as are the conrods and guornels, when I torque them up I can't turn the crankshaft, all pistons have gone back in the same order, but the conrod caps got mixed up, is there a certain way for them to go, dd

Its a rrc 3.5 v8, auto, its says suffix B, on the block, but have 14 cylinder head bolt? Which I think came later, just watch video on the tube, and noticed the notch in the bearing should be on the same side of the conrod, will have to check, or is it something else, dd

Yes to the bearing shell notch on same side then that will mean the cap is fitted in the correct direction. there maybe a a number denoting which cylinder/rod set stamped into each cap & rod [there is on my 200Tdi's conrods]
