Fordson Dexta head tork specks

Joe Rhodes · Jul 5, 2012

Can anyone tell me the head tork specks and sequance for a Fordson Dexta perkins 3 cylinder. I suspect a blown head gasket but I want to try to re -tork the head when hot befor I change the head gasket. Thanks

torque from center bolts in a cross pattern to the bolts on the ends to 55-60 FT LBs.

However, If you are getting pressure into the coolant and running hot, it is suggestive of a headgasket fire ring that is damaged, broken and cylinder pressures are flowing into coolant. My gut says it is unlikely retorqueing will correct it. Headgasket is @ $45, glycol replacement and new oil less than $30.

Good luck.
