Title: 2.2 MLF Torque Settings for Throttle Body Bolts ?
Post by: DrAndyB on 01 July 2015, 20:22:26

Hi there.

What is the recommended Torque settings for the 4 Throttle Body Bolts ? (going to take off and clean the one on my dads car so want to make sure all ok).

I assume its not too much?

Thanks.

Andy.

FT + 90 degrees  ;D

No, seriously I've never torqued them. A bit past snug has always been good for me .....in fact that goes for most things tbh :y
