Torque specs for the head bolts

[Lehdood]

Does anyone have the torque specs for the head bolts on a 2003 Saab 93 line Are? 2.0t b207l engine.

From the WIS:

"Fit the cylinder head according to the order shown in the illustration. Insert the bolts carefully. The threads in the cylinder block can be damaged if they are dropped rapidly.

Tightening torque step 1: 30 Nm (22 lbf ft)

Tightening torque step 2: 150°

Tightening torque step 3: 15°

Tightening torque, bolts for timing section, 35 Nm (26 lbf ft)"

Good luck

Thank you so much! [emoji106][emoji106]

It seems like it's a small amount tho

Agreed, nevertheless is the section from the WIS not only "rewritten", but a cut and paste thing. It's verified in the Technical Data Section, Tightening Torque, however slightly different as step #2 and -3 is respectively 75° and 80°. I assume the °-thing is essential to expand the bolts, and thus add the required torque.

The B205 cylinder head tightening torque sequence specification is (just) slightly different: 40Nm - 60Nm - 90°.

I don't have wis but can you by any chance find me a diy or some guidance on the timing chain removal? I'm taking it off for a bottom end build and I'm quite confused. Also specs for cam rockers too please. I appreciate it.

So my 2003 Saab 9-3 is in the shop with a leaking head gasket. The car has 105,000 on it and I just got the car in May. The shop wants 2 grand for my HD. 350 for my passenger seat. The cable broke.. And my car needs to be hooked up to a tech 2.. He didn't have one but said he had something that would read it.. And he didn't still charged me 115 bucks to "look at it" any suggestions on what to do?? Mainly about the head gasket and talking this rip off king down on his 300 bucks to tell me what's wrong. Hasn't fix anything. Wants 2500 altogether. FML. Got it for.. 4600

Damn. Junk the car, that's what I'm doing with mine lol. Most likely, after sticking 2k into it, figured out it had a warped head.
