[MDW]

Need the torque for the pressure plate bolts for the Sachs clutch??

Help, thanks

5/16" dia bolt gets 17 ft-lb, 3/8" dia bolt gets 30 ft-lb according to my '94 service manual...

MDW phoned me the same day he posted, and I told him the spec is 28 ft lb (30 is OK too). The grade 9 Allens spec at 34. 5 ft lb, but I don't know if the flywheel would be happy with that much. They are 5/16" x 18 thread. Hence, I recommend 28 ft lb with blue Loctite.
