Clutch Housing Bolts

Recommended Posts

Guest ashnicholls

How many Nm should the clutch housing bolts be torqued up to.

 

Because in my Haynes it says to torque them up to 45Nm, is this right?

 

Because i have just snapped two of the bolts trying to get it up to this?

 

Probably some KwickFit monkey changed the clutch and did over tightened it with an airgun?

 

Cheers

In the front of my Haynes Manual Under Over Head Cam Engine, It says Clutch Housing Bolts 45Nm??????????????????

 

Mine is a 309 by the way, and that in the 309 manual.

I just do em up evenly tight, with a dab of thread lock, never had a problem.

what torque though, was 45Nm too much, because it says you need 50Nm for the flywheel bolts, so i thought this was maybe abit much just for the housing??????????

the 309 haynes is wrong then, it defo says 45Nm, so no wonder they snapped, need a new set now then.
