What is the 2005 chevy equinox head bolt torque?

The cylinder heads of the 2005 Chevy Equinox should be tightened in a sequence of 3 steps that feature a head bolt torque of 22 ft-lbs; 44 ft-lbs and a final turn of 95 degrees. Cylinder heads can need replacing if a car has been allowed to overheat and stress the gasket seals. If coolant levels drop or remain low, the resultant rise in temperature can crack cylinders. If this happens, usually catastrophic engine damage follows. Cylinder head torque specs refer to the amount of rotational force required to tighten head bolts accurately. Gaskets are installed with an ability to "squeeze" or give where the seal meets the engine in order to function. Torque takes this fact into consideration.
