I am replacing the o-ring and gasket on my taco plate. I have a 74 2.0L and I am having a tuff time finding the required torque value for the oil temp sender. Can anyone tell me what the sender needs to be torqued to? The only info I have found on the taco plate installation is the torque value for the two 6mm bolts that hold the plate to the case. I read that they need to be torqued to 9 ft/lbs, does that sound correct?
Thanks for the help! Ray |

If i remember correctly it just tight enough so it doesn't leak (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) . BTW, i'll be swinging by in a bit to drop off a spare throw out bearing.
