Title: Torque specs List
Post by Ram on 10/06/04 at 17:38:08

Compiled a list of torque specs a while ago, to print and put in my garage so I don't have to go thru my manual with greasy hands  ;)

Tekxtc typed the list out in the following post as Ram's web server threw the original list away.

Added excel file -v1

the following



Here's a way to torque fasteners that are impossible to access with a plain torque wrench:

I've got lots of impromptu torque adapters I use while working on my bikes.  For instance, here are two that I've rigged up to torque the two 6mm nuts that are on the starboard side of the bottom of the cylinder assy.

This one uses a standard 10mm combination wrench.  The open end of the wrench fits perfectly on the drive square of my 3/8" torque wrench:

This one uses a 10mm crow's foot popped onto the drive square of my 3/8" drive torque wrench:


http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee201/Digger109/TorqueAdapterE.jpg


Just get an accurate measurement of the new perpendicular moment arm and do the math.  The offset angle of the 10mm wrench is small enough such that it can be neglected, by my calculations.

I keep the conversion factors in a book in my garage.  I currently have nineteen different torque adapters listed in that book.

another precision torque wrench
Torque = force x distance
measure from the center of the bolt/nut to the center of the hook.

Okay Vers..thanks for the tip!! I have used the crows foot..but adding the wrench to the end of the torque wrench are you not adding to the length of the beam therefore increasing the torque? I'm not talking smart. I usually use the "magic" torque wrench in my arm but crucial specs might be skewed. The crows foot I have used myself and extensions for sockets shouldn't change the readings as long as your not adding to the length. Just something I was taught.

Actually, the crow's foot does change the length, just not as much as the wrench does.

To get the proper torque, ya gotta do the math, in both cases.....

Torque is specified as being a quarter turn when new, and eighth turn when used.

Ver,

Assume that your starting point is for the plug to first be finger tightened?

Camshaft
chain tensioner set bolt      20.0      25.0      |      14.7      18.4
Camshaft
chain tensioner Plate bolt      8.0      12.0      |      5.9      8.8

Refering to the torque spec list wich one of the above is the bolt that holds the plunger?

Plate bolt.

at least that's what i used  :-[

In general, our sparky doesn't need to be torqued.  The class of fit is such that it won't leak and the cyclic pressure won't work the threads so they fatigue and fail.  What needs to happen is compress the washer to prevent ol sparky from walking out.

Why are there two values for both metric and english values in the list:

value1  value2 | value3 value4

I downloaded the excel file, and it has two tabs. both sheets have many of the same parts but with different torques? Am I reading this wrong?

I reviewed the file, found sht 2 matched the data listed here and deleted sht 1.
The revised file is now attached to the 1st post.

what are the torque specs for the motor mounts that connect the valve cover to the frame? and the ones under the bike. i couldnt find good info...so..i took the entire engine out to do the plug in the head. im gonna go grab a torque wrench from the store tomorrow and retorque the mounts.

those are No. 1's

the rest are all the same torque (No.2)

Torque spec for a NKG sparkplug in an alum head is 20 ft/lbs. (from NKG  factory sheet)
