From my Mechanic? If you can help . Thank you John Fitzsimmons 403-606-6607 jfitz@airsideaviation.com


Could you please, post on the Lincoln forum, what is the torque for the head retaining nuts and I need to talk with an experienced Lincoln owner about it's operation, I think I know what the problem is with the starting pedal but I would like to confirm my theory.

It might be wrong, but I just went off of a common bolt torque chart minus a few pounds.

Being conservative (not wanting to break a stud and create another mess), I went off the Grade 2 bolt numbers.


I also started in the center and tightened in expanding circles. I have re-torqued them 2 times after running.


Good luck!

John Fitzsimmons
