Re: [diesel_mercedes] Ludwig Rides again! Torque spec for little allen-head head bolts?

Eric - as long as you are operational I will disclose my well guarded secret; to wit, the Union station at the corner of Foothill and Towne that recently reopened - has diesel at $3.29 / gallon.

The rebuilt head and turbo are in my 82 300CD.

Turbo blows 13psi and that is close to the upper limit of 13.25.

One remaining issue: I could never find the proper torque for the 3 little allen head head bolts and apparently did not torque them sufficiently as I have a leak between the head and the block at the back side of the little cul de sac that houses the chain. One is under the cruise control (which I am now glad I did not reinstall) and the other two are under the valve cover on the inside of the front facing portion of the head.

Does any one know the torque for the little head bolts
