What is the torque (ft/lbs) setting for pressure plate bolts?
When installing pressure plate bolts(clutch job), what torque value in ft/lbs, do I set my torque wrench to? (69 911)
Thanks

Aren't the bolts standard DIN 8.8 M8 bolts???
If so, then Haynes is wrong or somebody transposed Lb-Ft and Nm ... because the proper M8 torque is 18 Lb-Ft, or 25 Nm!

I double-checked the Haynes manual, and it does say 25 ft-lbs. The later Bentley Carrera manual says 18 ft-lbs, so Warren is likely correct, and the Haynes number is a misprint.
