Hello, <br /> Does anyone have the torque specs for the head bolts for a 1986 115 HP Force outboard? I'm ordering a manual, but would like to get my head back on this weekend.. Thanks!<br /><br />C.

Looks like no one has a book handy. I'll post what I find when my book arrives in the mail.

If you have an 1986 125hp, then torque spec is 225 in lbs.

225 inch pounds in a spiral pattern from the center two bolts out. Torque in two or three steps. (for example: 150, 200, 225). If it is a new head gasket, re-torque after about 1/2 hour running. No need to re-torque a used gasket--it will not compress any more under heat
