Question
What is the head bolt torque for a 1995 S10 four cylinder?

Answer
Hi Keith,
According to my book, for a 2.2L 4 cyl. the head bolts torque in two steps.

First tighten the long ones to 46 Ft Lbs. and the short ones to 43 Ft Lbs.

Then, step 2= tighten each an additional 90 degrees, which is 1/4 turn.

Good luck,
Van
