Take the car for a drive to thoroughly heat up the engine uniformly. Use the rule of 9: adjust 1 when 8 is compressed etc. I use a large socket and long 1/2" ratchet to spin the motor but remember to remove it when you're finished or just push/pull the car in gear. BTW, retorque the head too but before you start the engine. A little extra work but worth it. Mike |
