Frequently asked questions

What is the Cylinder Head Bolt (247683) and what does it do?
This cylinder head bolt clamps the cylinder head to the block on the diesel engine, compressing the head gasket to seal the combustion chambers, coolant galleries and oil passages. It's the short bolt in the head-bolt pattern, with a 1/2 inch UNF thread.
How is this short head bolt different from the others?
This is the short bolt in the head-bolt pattern, with a 1/2 inch UNF thread. The cylinder head uses bolts of more than one length, so check the position in the tightening pattern and match the length before fitting to avoid bottoming out or under-clamping.
Can cylinder head bolts be reused?
Inspect each head bolt for thread stretch and corrosion before reuse and renew if in doubt. Head bolts are tightened in sequence to the figure in the workshop manual. If a bolt has necked or the threads are damaged, fit a new one rather than risk a gasket failure.
Which Land Rover does this head bolt fit?
It fits the early Land Rover Defender with the 2.25 litre diesel engine. Confirm your engine is the 2.25 diesel and check the bolt length against the one you're replacing, as the head uses both short and long bolts.
