I've got my clutch out and im replacing it. My question is do the pressure plate bolts have to be tourqed to spec? I think they do. Or can i just tighten them down firmly and get away with it?

Sometimes auto parts stores will allow you to rent torque wrenches or other tools, if that's why your questioning torquing them.

Thanks guys only if you want it to fall off. i think your thinking of the pressure plate torque. the flywheel bolts are 65lb each and they recomend you use locktite on them too. doubble check everything before do get into it This post has been edited by lagos: Nov 19, 2005 - 12:22 AM -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
