ok, i missed it

but in my defence id like to pose a question:

why was the number not included on page 36 about reinstalling the fan/alternater/belt?

Because it's a non-specific 8mm bolt. Most 8mm bolts with hex heads go to 14-18 ft/lbs, and inhex (allen) and triple square go to 31. 7mm (and the 8mm sump nut) go to 11, 6mm about the same, 10mm usually go to 35, and 12mm generally go to 56. The book is a guide, not a step by step procedureal document. Having used various manuals over the last 40 years, I find Haynes to be of only minor use, but it's better than Chilton or Clymer. Too bad Bentley Publishers doesn't have one for our cars.
