I want to remove and replace my Dellortos and the instructions are to torque to [EDITED] 13 inch-lbs. Most of you know what that feels like intuitively, but I'm a newbie and don't want to screw up my new toy.
I don't yet own a torque wrench -- don't think I've even used one before. I'm wondering which one I should buy for this and future 914 stuff. E.g. my valve covers are converted to bolt on. |

Someone on a 356 board said he filled the void with 2 part epoxy like JB Weld. They are pretty small voids so that would probably do it. Of course if it came loose it would end up in one of the cylinders. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
