What is the thread size of these bolts?

The thread size is M9x1.25mm.

What spanner size is needed for installation?

A 13mm spanner is required.

What is the total length of each bolt?

Each bolt has a total length of 96mm.

Are these bolts suitable for all FIAT or FORD models?

No, they are designed for specific models listed in the product description. Always verify compatibility with your exact vehicle model and year.

Can I reuse old cylinder head bolts?

It is generally recommended to replace cylinder head bolts whenever the cylinder head is removed, as they can stretch and lose their clamping force. This kit provides new bolts for a secure installation.

What type of head does the bolt have?

The bolts feature a male hex head design.

Troubleshooting

Bolt does not thread easily into the engine block.

Ensure the bolt thread (M9x1.25mm) matches the engine block's thread. Clean the engine block's threads thoroughly. Avoid cross-threading by starting the bolt by hand.

Difficulty achieving correct torque specification.

Verify you are using a calibrated torque wrench and the correct sequence for tightening. Ensure the bolt is not bottoming out prematurely; check the 96mm length specification.

Bolt head is damaged during tightening.

Ensure the 13mm spanner is of good quality and fits snugly onto the hex head. Do not use excessive force beyond the manufacturer's specified torque.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Check: Before installation, verify that your vehicle's make, model, and year are listed within the product's compatibility information. Pay close attention to the exact engine variant if specified.

Installation:

  1. Ensure the engine block and cylinder head mating surfaces are perfectly clean and free of debris or old gasket material.
  2. Lubricate the threads of the new bolts lightly with appropriate engine oil.
