Torque value for M6 nuts

[RSOHC]

I am in the process of changing the oil in my 914 Six with a 1976 2.7 911 engine. There are six M6 nuts that hold the strainer and the plate with the drain plug to the bottom of the engine. What is the torque value for the six M6 nuts?

Not much. Try 8 lb-ft and see how well that works.

You can also try searching for the manual for a 1976 911 to see what it has to say. That would be regarded as definitive, particularly over what some rando (e.g., ME!) says on the internet.

If you have an m6 fastener that not listed in the manual or tech book Porsche days to torque at 10nm which is the same as Dave suggested
