Johnson 120 v4, 1985 - Bolt Torque

[GeeTee]

Guys - i have a Seloc manual, i cant find where it states what the bolts going from the mid section into the powerhead needs to be torqued at? There are 3 long bolts on either side, 4 short bolts at the rear and 3 short bolts in the front. Please dont send me random links to torque pages, ive spent the last 2 hours looking everywhere for answers.

Assistance would be appreciated - thanks!

I have the factory manual for a 1991 120 V4 at the house. Maybe it's the same torque spec?

I'll check it when I get home.

Thanks Guys - Racerone - are you sure? That seems a little low? That might work for the heads i think - think the mid section to power head needs something along the lines of 360 inch-lbs? I`m not disputing your answer - i just cant find info anywhere.

I was merely indicating that your spec sounds low - that spec is just about right for the head bolt torque spec. So yeah, it sounds low in my opinion but thanks for your input.

Find an OMC Service Manual for that year motor and then you'll have the correct answer. Maybe try a dealer.

If you're talking about these bolts, racerone is correct. At least according to the manual for a 1991 120HP.
