I grab my original Mini Workshop Manual and re-torqued the cylinder head on my Moke.

While doing it didn't feel right.

So i checked my Haynes manual and to my surprise the sequence is different.

So it got me thinking which one is correct ?

Since I was nearly done I carried on with the factory Mini Manual.

Any thoughts

I'd trust the factory manual before the Haynes book of lies... :lol:

But basically if they work from the centre outwards, it's all good.

It's a British thing. They don't trust it, either. :wink:
