Fuel EXe Fuel EXe Bolt Torques

[clivem25]

Hi all. Have had a look through the service manual and both the TQ and E*Thirteen support documents and have been unable to find what the torque setting should be for the crank retaining caps. Can anyone point me at it?

i know this is for bosh/brose but I used these values.

Cheers. Yeah, saw that but 40NM seems like an absolute s#$tload for what looks like a relatively fine thread. Obviously didn't cause you any dramas though?

Whenever I see 40NM in my head that's just good'n'tight and I probably didn't do all 40nm. You can feel it in the crank when it hits the end. Happens way before 40nm. Just get it all the way in and give it little extra. If you use a bit of loctite it doesn't go anywhere. I have had mine off many times for various reasons without any drama.
