Steveg 1,031 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Hi Just noticed one of the alternator cover bolts were loose when I removed front sprocket cover to clean off the gloop They are only a 8mm bolt so don't think they will need much torque Cant see a value in manual any one know cheers Steve Link to post
deecat 318 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I think that they are a 6mm bolt with a 8mm head so around 8ft-lbs 1 Link to post
Steveg 1,031 Posted April 24, 2021 Author Share Posted April 24, 2021 Thanks don't have a low value torque wrench so just nipped it lightly by hand Cheers Steve Link to post
deecat 318 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Yep, I just use a ring spanner if you can and hold it more towards the ring end just so you don't give it to much pressure. I also have a small 1/4'' drive ratchet that only has a 50mm handle, which I use for small bolts. 1 1 Link to post
