View Full Version : Tightening Clutch Bolts
Just-Tri-It

I took a Phillips screwdriver and ran the 6 bolts down on the clutch just till they quit turning by hand in a crisscross pattern. They spun in fairly easily and they bottomed or snugged up. In order to get 7-10 pds on them without a torque wrench would you say another 1/4 to 1/2 turn would be enough tension without over dong it?
Thanks

I never torque clutch bolts down just snug them up good. Others may not like this idea so they can be of more help.

Snug is probably more or less of 7lbs.
I loctite them, just something I do and just a drop. I rarely open a motor back up after I work on it so why not safe guard it :D
