On my 1984 300D turbo I have to replace the flex plate and would like to know the torque and number of degrees for the 12 stretch-neck bolts that hold the flex late to the crank shaft.
Thanks

30-40Nm then 90-100-degrees. Don't forget Lok-tite. I use the blue kind.

A tightening sequence similar to what's recommended for a 6-lug road wheel is probably a good idea.

Thanks for your help and great info. I trust the info I get from this board. Thanks again
John.
