    Hi. I have been a lurker in the shadows for a long time and so this is my first post. I'm sure this detail appears somewhere on the forum but after many searches I wasn't able to find what I needed.

    Could someone advise what the cylinder head torque setting should be for a 1983 XC500 motor. thanks, Adrian.

    All I have is this page of torque values out of the HVA LC 2-stroke engine manual.
