What engine?

Hondahookup has most of the factory manuals with torque specs in them if you just want to look them up yourself.

 

I hope you're not the guy that owns the bad *** CRX I saw crusing up through Wheaton.

I ooed and ahhed when I saw it.

 

no crx, 1.5 dx sedan civic.

 

I think its like 9ft lbs on the oil pan bolts. either 8 or 9. Just make sure u don't overtighten or strip them suckers.

 

is there any easy way to put this oil pan on?

Uh, I think it is in inch pounds for the oil pan. If I remember correctly it was something like 25 inch pounds.

I always turn the oil pan bolts down till they bump up against the metal washer in the gasket and than give them a 1/4 turn.

 

The last time I looked in the manual, it was 8 or 9 ft lbs.

 

thanks i got it

Hmm, maybe thats right. Just seems like alot for a 10mm

 

I think there is a certain pattern you should follow also when bolting them on. Try to look into that because I did it a few times in regular order and it slightly leaked. Then someone told me to do it at a different order and it worked.

 

oh i know about the order, im concerned about the torque
