787 RFI engine; bolts that hold the magneto cover on, the ones that are put in behind the flywheel. They are small, 5/16 bolts and I am questioning torque values after shearing one.
I have two different manuals for this engine and one says torque to 80ft/lb and the other says 81ft/lb's. they are a grade 8 bolt and surely will not take more than 30ft/lb's?, and thats why I guess one sheared, any advice from you guys that have done this?
