123 Idler Arm Repair Kit - what torque, how tight?
Installing Febi W123 idler arm repair kit - question is, how tight do you torque the nut? Is there a torque spec? How much play/clearance/ease of motion should there be in the idler arm after installation?
thanks! BNC

Thanks Larry - bolted it down & took out the slack, but didn't want to over-do it...

According to the maintenanace manual:
http://mb.braingears.com/123_DISK2/program/Chassis/46-520.pdf 120 nm or about 90 ft-lbs. (tight). I hope this helps.
