I have a 1972 Wheelhorse Commando 800 with a Kohler K181S 8hp engine. Does anyone know what the recommended torque is on the cylinder head bolts? Thanks!!!

Bob, Make sure you you torque the head bolts in sequence(in the kohler manual), run engine 10 minutes, shut off and let cool down until the block is cold, then re-torque to proper specs. Kohler engines are known for blowing head gaskets! Good luck, Don

PS:Don't torque the head bolts to the finish torque specs all at once. "Sneak up" on the final setting in a few incements.

Hey Bob, the Kohler manual says 180 to 240 inch-pounds.
