Guest ashnicholls Posted May 12, 2006 How do you tell whether the bolt in the cam belt cog is a M10 (to be torqued to 40Nms) or an M12 (to be torqued to 80Nms). Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ashnicholls Posted May 12, 2006 whats the m12 on, and why would it have the torque setting for it in the haynes manual? not doubting you, just curious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 244 3 Cars Posted May 13, 2006 whats the m12 on, and why would it have the torque setting for it in the haynes manual? 105bhp XU5J engines which are very rare in a 205. Torque for the M10 is in the supplement at the back. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ashnicholls Posted May 13, 2006 yes that what I was asking I wasnt very clear, is it whether its a 10mm or a 12mm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PumaRacing 2 Posted May 13, 2006 Even with only the aid of a wooden ruler marked out by a blind man's guide dog surely you can measure the difference between a 10mm diameter bolt and a 12mm one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ashnicholls Posted May 13, 2006 Oh so even you can do it then. I know how to measure the size of a bolt, i wanted to know what M10 and M12 meant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PumaRacing 2 Posted May 13, 2006 M = metric i.e. millimetres 10 = 10 millimetres 12 = 12 millimetres Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
