318 head cleaning question

Note* - when reassembling the rocker arms, there is an error in the service manuals on the torque - they should be torqued to 200 - 225 inch pounds, not 25 - 30 foot pounds or they can stretch and break...

also pay attention that are left and right, you have to get them in the proper position... Take a picture before you disassemble so you know how they go...

If you need any help, we can talk you through it...


I usually scrape the big stuff off with a scraper or flat screwdriver.... Then I hit it with a good parts cleaner, either the red CRC brake cleaner or barryman's 12 carb cleaner...
