Waterpump To Radiator Pipe, MX5 Mk1 – MX5 Parts

I can’t find the torque settings for the bolts.

Does anyone know what they are?

The haynes manual isn’t great.

Do you mean the torque for the two 10mm bolts that mount it to the body? 10 Nm should be fine…

Yes, both those bolts. However, in my rush I guessed it and I’m now left with a sheared bolt. SIGH.

I’ve looked online at some service manuals and I’m going to assume that if it’s not listed on the torque settings there actual is no setting and snug would do.
