Hello,
Yes, I did search via google but I'm still confused!
I'm installing the OES Delrin sliders. The instructions say to install the right side and torque, then install the left side and torque. From their pictures, it may be backwards, but...
From this forum and the '08 FSM, I should torque the left side first then the right side (both at 35 lbs/ft). I got that. What is not clear, and I don't understand, is do I
- Remove left side bolt and install the slider snug
- Remove the right side bolt and install the slider snug
- THEN, torque the left side
- then, torque the right side?
OR, install the left slider and torque; install right slider and torque.
The FSM, in the "Engine Installation" section says "Do not fully tighten the bolts" as later there is a tightening sequence. However, that is for all the bolts during installation.
Sorry if I'm making too much out of this, but when I read about the effect on alignment, I want to follow the correct procedure.
Thanks,
Rich
