Advancing the Endura engine rebuild with oil seals, oil pan, and clutch in episode 13.4 of the assembly. Also organizing the bottom end assembly to get it ready for installation
⚡ Tightening Torques & Specifications
| Component | Specified Torque | Assembly Notes |
|---|---|---|
| timing chain tensioner | 1 N·m | Value already in N·m as explicitly stated in the video. Rounded to 1 N·m. |
| timing chain cover/plate | 9 N·m | 0.9 kgf·m × 9.81 = 8.8 N·m → rounded to 9 N·m. |
| water pump / water pump pulley | 10 N·m | 1.0 kgf·m × 9.81 = 9.81 N·m → rounded to 10 N·m. |
| rear main seal cover | 18 N·m | Unit not explicitly stated, but kgf·m is consistent with the video pattern. 1.8 × 9.81 = 17.7 N·m → 18 N·m. |
| oil pan bolts | 11 N·m | 10.7 N·m directly stated (small Endura aluminum oil pan bolts). Rounded to 11 N·m. |
| oil pan bolts | 10 N·m | 1.0 kgf·m × 9.81 = 9.81 N·m → 10 N·m. |
| flywheel bolts | 66 N·m | 6.7 kgf·m × 9.81 = 65.7 N·m → 66 N·m. |
| clutch pressure plate bolts | 29 N·m | 3.0 kgf·m × 9.81 = 29.4 N·m → 29 N·m. |
| crankshaft front pulley (damper) | 113 N·m | "11.5 que os" interpreted as 11.5 kgf·m. 11.5 × 9.81 = 112.8 N·m → 113 N·m. Context indicates heavy tightening consistent with a crankshaft pulley. |
