Honda BF75L Torque specs

[mainsail50e]

Hi, I am attempting to install a new impellor and gasket kit on my 7.5 Honda engine. I have the exploded view and can take apart and replace impellor and gaskets but need the torque specs to do up for the pump and the lower unit. Anybody care to look that up for someone having a tough time getting a manual.<br />Thanks<br />Randy

Thanks, I am an old guy and used to ft/lbs torque but will work it out. I appreciate the effort and information.

That will be 90 INCH/LBs on all bolts,or nice and snug with a 1/4 inch ratchet.

Thanks , I found that the conversion from Newton meters to foot lbs is x 0.738 but nice and snug with a 1/4 inch is much easier The instructions that I received also mentions bolt sealer are they referring to locktite or similiar product.<br />Randy
