Does anyone know the torque spec on the injector bolts for the Mitsubishi Outlander 2.2 DI-D 2012 2wd?

Thanks

 

I found a thread in the sticky section for outlanders, someone uploaded a manual for a 2011. I found torque settings in there.

My question is can i assume these torque settings are for all bolts and nuts of the correct size? So for example, if i find that my bolt is an m10 on my injector, this correlates with the torque settings found in the below manual?

 

Only the 4cyl 2.4 and V6 3L in the manual that I can find.

 

Are we talking 4N15 engine here?

 

Hi, no. Torque settings for injectors on a 4N14 engine?

 

Thanks, sadly mine is 2.2 so would need the correct torque settings for that size engine to avoid any pitfalls in damaging the threads.

 

sorry my typo. i meant 4n14

ok injector bolts.

ensure threads on bolts and holes in head are clean and dry. VERY IMPORTANT

fit injectors and fit holders over the top. fit bolts on either side of injector and tighten evenly by hand turning socket. you should use a straight edge resting across all the injector holders to ensure they are all level.
tighten all bolts to 1nm( which is just above finger tight)

Then on the first injector, tighten one bolt by 90 degrees, then the other bolt by 180 degrees. Move to the next injector, and repeat until all are done the same.

These engine suffer with cracking cylinder heads when they are overtightened or the threads are full of oil or water (causing a hydraulic lock in the hole).

 

I have tied down most of what you say here from previous research, understanding how important it is for threads to be clean and dry etc.

I have also found the torque settings for my engine...

12 + 1 nm

Are these settings different to what you mention one bolt at 90 degrees the other at 180?

 

yes they are different. the 12 +1 is for 4d56 engine

4N13 4N14 & 4N15 are all the same 1nm then 90 for one and 180 for other

 

So one bolt is less tighter on one side of each injector? Why aren't the numbers equal? Does it matter which side is at 90 and which side is at 180?

Also what would be classed as above finger tight? A slight turn with a socket wrench after finger tightening?

Thanks
