Good morning. I am in the final stages of putting my motor back together. I am at the point where I need to install the manifold. I have the new marine gaskets ready to go. I do have a few questions.
The manual says 35lbs of torque, but I had read somewhere that a bulletin was released that it should only be 11lbs of torque - is that correct?
I have the grey gasket maker stuff ready. Am I supposed to put the manifold in place first with the gasket maker on the front and the back of the motor and let it dry first before torquing it down in sequence?
Do the bolts have to have gasket maker on them as well for installation?
Should I put the carb on the manifold before I install?
I think that's all?
Thank you,
