I am re-assembling my engine. I looked in my Haynes manual, tech specs booklet and factory service manual and could not find torque values for the four impeller housing nuts. Are there torque values for these nuts or do they just need to be snugged up?
Thanks for the help. |

My rule of "finger" for fasteners of that size is to use a 1/4" ratchet and tighten with just thumb & one finger.
For torquing larger fasteners I go by: Snug < Grunt < Fart < Grunt+Fart Where Grunt+Fart =~ 90-100 Ft Lbs (wheel lug torque) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

The farts and grunts come at lower levels than when I was a younger man. |
