Technical problem!
I have studied the manual for this job while staring at the engine in order to spot any issues.
The one thing that has me beat at present is that I can see how to get spanners onto all of the external nuts/bolts while dismantling the engine but I can't see how to get my torque wrench back in there when re-assembling the engine. The torque wrench is bigger than the end of a spanner and there is very little clearance for the cylinder bolts on the right hand side and the cyl head bolts at the front and back of the engine. In the former case it is an issue of "headroom" clearance to the cylinder itself and for the latter, the bolts appear to be very tight up against the cylinder and for headroom.
Does anyone know of an alternative to the usual "click type" torque wrench or what other technique will get the bolts/nuts to the correct torque setting? (Does Yamaha have yet another special tool???!!).
Cheers,
Dave
ps The chain tensioner may have a similar issue with clearance for tightening it vis a vis the adjacent oil tank (but in the worst case the oil tank could be removed).
