Usually head cover bolts are torqued to about 10 lbs. It is just enough to squease gently the new gasket so oil isn't leaking .

What carburetor fits my Hyundai Accent 1 X3 1997, it is the South African version. Not mistaken it has a g4eh alpha engine also 1.3l.

What issues are you having with the one you have fitted now? Have you given the old one a major service? The gaskets, diaphragm, idle jet and main jet. Sometimes the fix can be as easy as that.

I have a 2001 Hyundai accent with the 1.5 l single overhead cam I need the torque number and sequence for The rocker shafts

The torque specification for the rocker shafts on the 2001 Hyundai Accent with the 1.5L single overhead cam engine is 18-20 lb-ft. The proper torque sequence is as follows:
  1. Tighten the bolts to 8 lb-ft in a crosswise pattern.
  2. Increase the torque to 15 lb-ft, again in a crosswise pattern.
  3. Finally, tighten the bolts to the full torque of 18-20 lb-ft, again in a crosswise pattern.
Make sure to use a torque wrench and follow the sequence carefully to ensure proper tightening and prevent damage.

Does the Rocker covers in a Hyundai 2002 terracan highlander require a torque wrench to tighten the bolts after the gasket is replaced and if so what is the sequence? Same question regarding fuel inlet...

the FSM covers all this, buy one, or log in to alldata.com
yes, all bolts on the engine are set at a spec. torque.
you didnt state , engine size option, so nobody can answer, exactly.
but all bolts all all parts, should be staged down, to the spec.torque.
some bolts 6mm need to be set to 80-100 inch/lbs. not FOOT.
and if you exceed that much, they strip or snap, making an easy job
1000x more hard.
usually sequence maps (off and on differ) are limited to head bolts and cam cap bolts. but not always, that is why reading the FSM on your car
and your engine options is best. and all those warning there.
include steps telling you to use RTV sealant at special places.

alldata.com log in , read the engine chapter, its all there , all the time.
