LFY MP7.3

I asked this here because it could be ranked as an opinion-based question.

That's all

3) tighten them to 10 Nm

2) tighten them to 5 Nm

1) tighten all bolts fingertight

It says:

It is so easy! Just tightening the bolts from left to right then from right to left!

It is so strange that I thought it could be a typo!

It is usually something like the following in most cars:

I have never seen such a sequence

Isn't it strange?

This is the tightening sequence recommended by manufacturer for my car

Look here:

There is something strange about my cam caps.

@Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 I used to think it is as easy as putting them flush with the head and tighten the caps!

Some say when you start to tighten the caps, the seals may want to go out.

That's why I always ask you first when in doubt about something.

I have done many services on cars based on your tips and nothing has ever gone wrong.

I just wanted to make sure, I have understood your tips well. That's all.

And by being perpendicular to the cam, you mean both the lower and upper parts of the seal should form a straight line and go in equally.

If this is what you mean by NON-perpendicular, then I got your point.

Do you mean for example the lower part of the seal (below camshaft) is further in than the upper part (above the camshaft)?

How could it be?

Is it possible to be non-perpendicular to the cam as well?

perpendicular to the cam

What do you exactly mean by Squareness?

My car still has its original seals after 20 years with zero leakage but since I have to replace my lifters I have to replace the seals as well. I have no choice!

To be honest, you freaked me out when you talked about leakage!

Yes, I can use them once. I know it.

I'm considering buying a rusty cylinder head from a scrapyard and practice on it first before doing anything in the real world.

This is probably the problem most people have faced with

The only thing I'm afraid about is how deep should the seal be. How far should it go in

I can make some measurements for the correct position of the seal

How should I make sure these things won't happen?

@Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2

Is this the groove you were talking about in your tips?

Ich denke, dass "noch" in beiden Sätzen ähnliche bedeutung hat.

2 - Ich werde "noch" heute Abend zu ihr gehen

1- Bitte heute "noch" die Rechnung hier bezahlen

Warum beides und nicht beide?

Beim klingt besser.

Rufen Sie beim Restaurant Zur Post an.

im?

Rufen Sie im Restaurant Zur Post an.

Ich verstehe es nicht, warum "bei" hier "von" bedeuten kann.
