Replacement of Cylinder Head Fixing Bolts

Model: Volvo S70 MK 1 - Years 1996-2000
Part: Engine

When performing maintenance that requires the removal of the cylinder head, it is always advisable to use a new set of bolts for the subsequent installation. Start by re-tapping the threads of the fixing holes on the block with the appropriate tap (check the diameter and pitch of the thread), ensuring that no debris falls into the cylinders. Then, apply sealant to the bottom of the thread and under the heads of the new bolts, and proceed with tightening in a cross pattern (instructions can be found in specific workshop manuals), using both a torque wrench and a standard spanner.
