Torque Spec For Hand Primer

[techguy512]

I've done several searches for this information, but I've come up empty so far.

Does anyone have the torque spec for the hand primer pump on the 617 injection pump? The threads are aluminum, so
I worry a little about overtorqueing.

Thanks

I have never thought of it and have changed several. The short size of wrench you use to get in there kind of limits the torque anyways. I just snug it down reasonably and check for any leaking the next day.
The new seal is usually supplied. If it was not I would heat the old one up till red to aneal or soften it and use it again. No real amount of pressure there.

Agree with barry... a cruch ring comes with, just tighten down, should be fine.
