sethicus Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Hey guys my torque wrench jammed when i was tightening the 1 bolt on my ea82. On the tightening. I went about half a turn too much. Should i be worried? Im running the felpro headgasket set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I haven't done that..... My fist thought is to loosen everything, and re torque. IF you stripped it, it won't get back to spec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sethicus Posted August 19, 2015 Author Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) It didn't strip. I stopped cause it felt wrong. And it was just 11bolt. Wouldnt i compromise the gasket if i loosend everything? Edited August 19, 2015 by sethicus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im running the felpro headgasket set. *edit*What do you mean by jammed?? im sure the gasket would be ok, but did you clean the headbolt threads and tap the block threads before installing? Also did you torque all headbolts in seqence and in three steps? Did bolt creek or feel like it gave...?
