water pump torque spec
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.

Re: water pump torque spec
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
M6 bolts: 7 ft lbs
M8 bolts: 26 ft lbs

Re: water pump torque spec
Just shows you cannot believe all you see, two bolt sizes. I should have looked up that other page.
Its all good. I appreciate the efforts of all.

You're rarely off your game, so definitely an anomaly.
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.
Re: water pump torque spec
You were lucky the 6mm bolt broke instead of stripping the aluminum thread.
In matters like this I think caution should be used.
