Great video. Do you have link to the original problem you were having? I have a 02 sl2 #4 cylinder miss fire. 3cylinders have 180psi. #4 have 90psi. Car passed smog check and get 31mpg on highway at 78 mph. What do you think

READ:

The torque values given in the video are inaccurate.

The real torque values: first pass, tighten to 22 ft-lbs, second pass tighten to 33 ft-lbs + an additional 90 degrees, third and final pass, turn an additional 90 degrees (total 180 degrees from second and third pass)

The text of the factory service manual for the 2000 Saturn SW2 1.9l DOHC says:

IMPORTANT: The following steps must be completed in sequence. This will

ensure uniform bolt tension.

8. Cylinder head bolt tightening procedure:

9. In sequence, torque the cylinder head bolts.

TIGHTEN

Cylinder head bolts – first pass to 30 Nm (22 lb. ft.).

(note, this was a picture depicting the torque sequence for cylinder head bolts)
Intake Side
8 4 1 5 9
7 3 2 6 10
Exhaust Side

10. In sequence, torque all bolts: second pass.

TIGHTEN
Cylinder head bolts – second pass (DOHC to ) 45 Nm (33 lb. ft.) + 90 degrees.

11. Install the SA9140E or equivalent, Snap-on Tool 360.

12. Calibrate the gage to zero.

13. In sequence, tum each bolt an additional 90 degrees – final pass. (note, this means a total of 180 degrees past the 33 ft-lbs torque

By chance, do u have the bolt diagram for timing cover? It seems I have couple bolts not threaded all the way up, and I don't want to put them in the wrong holes :/

Video was very helpful. Had a 1997 saturn with the exact 1.9 engine that had a cracked head and was leaking oil and water very bad. The car was basically junk. Found a junkyard head for 200$. Followed the video and did a head swap in about 8 hours of my time. I ended up with 265$ in the complete job which was the used head and new gasket set. Car cranked right up and runs like new. Driving it 300 miles without issue. Thanks for the video
