Oil Transfer Housing Torque Specs.

#1 Post by elmefrio »

Hello!

I'm going to replace the 2 O- Ring on my Sprint Oil Transfer Housing (the one within oil pressure switch)

Can anyone tell me the torque specs for the central 3/8 Bolt? I read a million of times the Torque specs section on BL workshop manual but I can find ALL specs but no this particular spec. :twisted:

Thank You In Advance, greetings from Italy :bluewave:

I would think 25 lb ft would be plenty...
