If you have studs pulling loose, this could cause leakage around the cyl's, pushrod tubes could be leaking. If you have case savers in the engine, torque is 18 ft lbs(stud nuts) , others are 24 ft lbs . Torque secquence is small X ,large X ,do half the torque the first time, full torque the second time. good luck .------------------------------------------------------------------- > Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, > Subject: unsubscribe > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
