    Default Water Pump Screws and Torque

    I see that I have one SS screw with a copper washer, and I failed to note which hole it goes in. Which hole does it go in? I am looking at the housing from the rear of the engine, and I see a hole at 6 o-clock, 8 o-clock, 10 o-clock, 12 o-clock , and 3 o'clock. Which hole does it go in?

    What torque should I use for these screws. I read that the torques on this engine are all specified and have tight tolerances.

    Thanks
    Tom

    The stainless screw goes in the bottom most hole (6 o'clock). It will act as a drain if you choose. 10 Nm, or 90 inch pounds.
