Coilpack - Torque figure for bolts?

Recommended Posts

Anyone have the torque for the allan bolts?

Bentley seems to deal with only the distributor models - is that correct?

 

I suspect that - as with the thermostat housing - the value will be pretty low in view of the plastic in the component.

 

Funny how so many owners report cracked thermostat housings (mine was intact after 12 years) and coilpacks. I suspect the great heat coming from the VR6 engine block plays a part, but how many of us (or our high charging garage technicians) are guessing? :shock:

 

I had to buy another torque wrench to do the thermostat housing at 7ftlb. It is by Draper, about £30, but very nice IMO, and a lot cheaper than a coilpack or thermostat housing you gung-ho young bucks out there. :lol: :thumb right:
