water pump torque spec
Ok atm the sites ability to download the documentation is nil. i was hoping to find the service manual for all the correct info on replacing the water pump. at this point i can find enough general data(and have done water pumps on other vehicles) that i think i can do this easy enough. my only concern is re-torque on reassembly. anyone have the torque spec for the water pump bolts?
I say thank you in advance. |

That diagram is very misleading. If you try to put 26 ft lbs on the smaller bolts they are going to break. Please take a look at the attached specs also from the service manual.
M6 bolts: 7 ft lbs M8 bolts: 26 ft lbs |
Re: water pump torque spec
TY for the correction.
always appreciate info that prevents breakage. ;) |

Re: water pump torque spec
Torque is king on this work and it is really important that the bolts be kept straight as there are MANY and several different lengths to keep track of, Woody. Enjoy.;):D

Re: water pump torque spec
Should anti seize or anything else be put on these bolts when installing the water pump back in? Only on one post do I remember someone mentioning anti seize.... I'm probably going to use it because "why not"....but just thought I would check to see if anyone would recommend for or against it. Thanks.

Damn wish I had searched for this thread two days ago. I was mislead by the service manual torque and ended up snapping two bolts installing my new pump. Oh I could get out but the other no luck. It's basically ruined that boot hole.
You were lucky the 6mm bolt broke instead of stripping the aluminum thread. In matters like this I think caution should be used. |

Attached are a couple of resources I've used for tightening torques of metric fasteners.

Re: water pump torque spec
Well got it done. Spent the day today drilling and tapping. Ran it and went for a little drive. No leaks so far.
