Can somebody tell me what the torque is supposed to be on oil pan bolts? My '84 factory service manual says [color:"red"] 52 ft/lbs. [/color] <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> I sheared one off attempting to torque it... I dropped the torque wrench to 25 ft/lbs. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> and sheared another... I finally just cinched them down to about 12 ft/lbs. Upon looking at the back of the fsm for 8mm bolts with the number 4 on the head, it says to torque those to 9 ft/lbs. Why would the factory service manual state 52 ft/lbs in one section, then 9 ft/lbs at the back? What should I torque them to? By the way - this is for an '84 22r. Ken

Sorry guys and gals... I should have looked at the post about the loose oil pan bolts... found my torque values right there! Sorry for my brain fart! But why would the fsm state 52 ft/lbs?

i'd say more along the lines of 52 in/lbs! the oil pan just needs to be on tight enough to not leak.
