Hello everyone, been a while, hope all is well. My brother-in-law bought a boat with a 1985 Johnson 235 on it and I can't find my book for it. I was hoping to replace one of the head gaskets by this weekend. Does anyone have the tightening pattern and the torque specs for this motor? I do own a book for this motor, just don't know where it is. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

20-22 ft lbs. Start in the center and work your way out in a spiral pattern.
