As the title says, what are the torque specs for the banjo bolt on the secondary rail? I am sure they are in the FSM somewhere, or on the forum, but I am having no luck finding it.....

Anyone have any ideas? I can't go much further with things until I torque this bolt.

 

try the FSM in the FAQ section or 'gutintite'

I have a "hard" copy of the FSM, and it seems to skip over the torque specs on that one bolt (unless I am blind). I see the specs for the primary fuel rail, and the LIM, but I don't see the specs for the banjo bolt.

As far as just guessing, I'd rather not considering that fuel is involved.

 

I haven't seen any specs for that. Basically, just tighten down hard, but if you find yourself using your foot on the side of the car for leverage you are tightening it too much.

 

I have always used 15-20 Ft/Lbs without any problems.

 

Thanks guys. The only problem I have now is trying to install an engine alone. I actually have the damn thing in, and lined up with the tranny, but I am having trouble mating the 2 together. I would have been done hours ago if I had some help.

Anyway, I'm tired as hell, so I am calling it quits for now (jesus christ its almost 4am!!!!).
