Hello Saab-v4.co.uk
New member to the board... I'm working on a '71 Sonett III.
Been looking all over the Saabv4.com manuals and cannot find the torque spec for the clutch cover to flywheel bolts.
They were quite snug coming off, but I dont want to go too far putting them back.
If anyone knows I would much appreciate it.
Thanks for reading

Thanks for the reply kups.
I will check out that link. I have also had recommendation for 20 - 30 ft lbs of torque.
Glad the forum is back online!

I think its around 2.7 - 3.3 Kgm or 26 - 32 Nm for the two stroke engine but I don't know if its the same for the V4.

Here is a torque guide based on bolt head markings.

Thank you Chris and Woody.
Progress has been slowed by a snowstorm that is hitting Washington state.
