Head Bolt Torque Rate
Was very liberal with the RTV sealant, been running for about a week now with no leakage issues. A paper dog chasing a cat in h*ll had a better chance than I would have had by adding a few more turns on the intake mani seal, chunk was missing, metal and all... As a result I had lots of...- kgillaume

Head Bolt Torque Rate
I currently have a 93 Explorer 4.0L Pushrod engine in pieces, broken plug removal... I do not have a repair manual, but the only thing I need to know is the foot pounds to torque the head bolts down to. Anyone have this info? 4.0L V6, Pushrod 289CID? Thanks- kgillaume

Envirolution and Synthetic Oil?
Thanks, would it still be a good idea for an envirolution flush? I'm not so interested in mods but long lasting efficiency. Any other techniques or treatments I can give the drivetrain to extend the life?- kgillaume

Envirolution and Synthetic Oil?
