Torque specifications for a Honda GX200 ?

Does anyone have or know where I can find rebuild torque specifications for a Honda GX 200, 6.5 HP? For example the torque for connecting rod bolts and head bolts.

I searched the sticky notes on this site but to no avail.

Thank you,
Jim

Owners manuals can be had here http://www.hondapowerequipment.com/own.htm

U may have to purchase a service manual to find some of the specs you want, but some of the owners manuals have some specs.

Lot's of service manuals to choose from on the Honda WEB site. I just prefer not to spend $30.00 for a small amount of information.
I may be able to find a small engine book.

My book doesn't show a GX200. Maybe it's not current enough. It does, however, say that all single cylinder engines except the GX160 and GXV160 have a connecting rod cap bolt torque of 10 ft lbs. It says, under the same pretenses, that the head bolts are torqued to 25 ft lbs. This may apply to your engine as well, and I tend to think these toque values would be sufficient, but it wouldn't hurt to contact honda with these questions to be sure.

Thanks Cheese, these specs should work or at least come close.
I forgot to mention previously....does your book show the specs for the rocker arm nuts? This is probable most important.

Thanks much

Toro is a Terror

Toro self propelled walk behind mower. Starts on first pull, runs for 20-30 minutes, THEN, after it gets HOT it STOPS and that rhymes. No amount of restart tries will work. After it cools for several hours it's the same story. Could the mag pickup be too close to the flywheel? Thanx, REBELRead More

McCullough random gas leakage

Skroob23 on Jul 01, 2005

I recently found a McCullough Eager Beaver 327 BC gas trimmer in the back of my garage. Apparently it had been my grandfather's, and from the looks of it, it probably is about 10 years old but has never been used before. After some use with it, I noticed a gas leak from a cracked fuel line. After replacing the cracked fuel line, I thought I had solved my problem until a couple days later there was another leak. The strange this is is that when i tried it out later, there were not more leaks and it worked fine. Even so, I replaced the other two fuel lines and soon afterward, the trimmer worked fine with no leaks; however, i'm still concerned that it could randomly start leaking again. My guess is that i primed it too much because the directions say to push the primer bulb 10 times before use, which seems to be too much. Anyone know any other reasons for the leaks?Read More
