I didn;t know how to post two links. One is below and one is here:
http://www.genuinesaab.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=255
The one from GS says is made by SAAB, whereas the one from eeuro says it's by another manufacturer. Which ones should I get to provide me with the best results.
Also, I've read a lot about this in the BBs and will be doing this myself. It seems like a very simple job, but will be my first "big" job. Is there anything that can be royally screwed up by doing this, or if I follow the basic instructions (do them in sequence, remove one, put a new one in, tighten to 44ft/lbf, do for all of them, come back and tighten a further 90 degrees (eyeballing it) and that's it) then I should be fine...? I'm "afraid" that I'll do it and then disturb the headgasket, and somehow end up making things worse. (Although I probably shouldn't be)
Lastly, I plan on dipping each bolt in engine oil for accurate torque readings. Didn't read anything on that, but should be fine I assume...
Thanks in advance to you all.
