G60 engine rebuild advice

Post

Back to the top
I'm at the point where I need to refresh my g60 engine. It's done around 90k and the supercharger was rebuilt around 500 miles ago.
The minimum I plans on doing is full gasket set, cam belt, big ends and piston rings. Hopefully the bores and pistons are in good condition if not I will have to get it rebored/ oversize pistons etc. I will probably have the head mildly ported while it is off.

does anyone have any information on torque settings/ clearances etc? Or know of any links or guides. I have had a look but can't find much information on the engine. Are there any manuals that could be of use.

Any help would be very much appreciated :thumbs:

bentley corrado manual is what you want, can get digital ones from various places free or ebay, or the full on paper manual.

most if not all of it is same as a normal 1.8 lump though, the mk2 haynes one is probably the best to get as it covers the digifant engine which has extra figures you need e.g. lambda probe bolt torque, coolant temp sender resistance etc.

see my sig for pgigntimign and pgidleco.pdf for the setup procedures

Cheers for the replying guys!
In the end I got the Bentley corrado manual on cd from a guy on eBay. Bargain at £2.50, very comprehensive with every thing I need, clearances, torque settings etc  :thumbs:
