Want this question answered?
The torque setting for the pressure plate on the clutch for an s10 2.2 is 33 foot pounds. The torque for the 4.3 is 29 foot pounds.
Can i have the clutch pressure plate bolt torque setting not the FLYWHEEL BOLT
80Lbs for flywheel, 10 to 15lbs for pressure plate
35 ~ 46 Foot pounds of torque. Pressure plate bolts.
Yes, you have to torque everything on the drivetrain correctly. The manual calls for 15 ft-lb (dry and clean) on the pressure plate-to-flywheel bolts.
Pressure plate to flywheel bolts - 24 ft/lbs
pressure plate to flywheel bolts - 15 to 24
Not sure of exact torque, would suggest good gasket, or rtv and use locktite on bolts, torque to approx 15 ft lbs.
Just criss-cross on the bolts and don't tighten them all in sequence, just like tightening lug nuts on a wheel.
Put the wrench to it's highest setting and "break" it or cycle it 6 times. We have a plate welded to a steel beam that has a socket welded to the plate for the use of cycling our torque wrenches. Make sure it is stored in its lowest setting. :)
You could stretch the bolts, strip the threads out of the flywheel or break the bolts off in the flywheel.
Loose converter bolts or a cracked pressure plate.
