MikeAK Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 As the title says really. Does anyone know the tightening torque for the oil cooler adapter (between pump and filter) on a 3.9 V8. Can't seem to find it in RAVE. Thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Range Rover Blues Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Not very, IIRC it's held on by a hollow bolt through the middle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeAK Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 Yes thats right, hollow bolt through middle. Would like the correct torque as I don't want it to leak or come loose, but don't don't want to damage it either! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Range Rover Blues Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 IIRC then it seal with an O ring so no tighter than an oil filter really. I seem to remeber I had one that kept coming off too when I changed the filter, I wrapped it in PTFE to hold it in place. Once the filter is one that effectively clamps all the bits together. I'll have a look if time permits at the stack of books I have hiding somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
