What is the proper torque for those?
I never see it in the manuals I have. Thanks, Mark S. '70 914-6 |
I think that you won't see it in the manuals because you can't get a torque wrench on them. Snug. I'd say 15 ft-lb tops. That's just a guess though. If you overtighten, you can mess up the studs and have trouble getting a smooth adjustability next time... This is one of these fasteners where it helps to have some wrenching time and have a 'feel' what a nut / stud of that size easily takes an needs to stay in place.

George said it, unfortunately a torque wrench isn't realistic on these but they are small nuts and studs so "snug tight" is the rule. If you have sensitive hands and are using the right sized wrench, (not to big/heavy for the size of fastener), you can actually feel the threads "bottom out" and begin to stretch, depending on the amount of stress you should have a feel for "tight". This is general advice, not specific to valve adjusters. :cool:
