A very good point that BUP brought up is that you don't just go and tighten one fastener to max torque. Even if there is no torque pattern on any specific part, you must go from one side to the other side gradually. I am sure you knew that, and anyone that doesn't know that should not be working on their motors.

Lol. I.swear my wife crossthreads everything.
Yes, bwanna, I knew about starting in the center and working out, just wasn't too sure about how tight to go.

I had to retighten many of mine midseason.. some were pretty loose. That heat cycle will get ya everytime.

be careful when she's on her cycle... could be messy!!! :ban:

Cross threads bettr'n no thread!

Yeah, but then it is on to Hot flashes! No retorque for that one, lol or much retort for that matter, except roll the window down or put on a jacket dear. :rolleyes:
