I have a Ford Falcon Au series 3. I've recently replaced the drive but want to torque all the bolts on the pullies correctly but I can't seem to find what I should set the torque wrench to for these bolts.

What size engine do you have you put 4.0 liter? Here are the specs and instructions for a 2.0 liter. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what you find.

Hi,

I noticed we haven't heard from you for a couple of days. Was the information provided helpful? Is there additional info needed? We are interested in knowing.

Take care,

Hi Joe,

I just wasn't sure if the advice applies to a 4.0L Ford engine as the specifications provided are for a 2.0L engine. Do these specifications for both?

Hi,

The torque specs are for the 2.0L. If you have the 4.0L, what type of vehicle was it taken from? Sorry, this model isn't offered in the US, so we are trying to cross-reference different vehicles.

I attached specs for a 4.0L from a different vehicle.

Let me know.

Joe

Ah, okay, that makes sense. It's a 4.0L 6 cylinder automatic sedan.

Hi,

That is what I'm showing for the 4.0L V6. The specs aren't excessively tight, so it shouldn't damage anything if we are off.

Let me know how things turn out for you or if there is anything we can help with.
