Oil Pan bolts?
 

I'm in the process of removing the oil pan from my '75 CJ5 258. I've read
through my Chilton's and Haynes manual, but can't seem to find the Torque
spec's for the oil pan retaining bolts. The spec's for the 4 cylinder is in
the Chilton's, but not the Haynes. Please Help. Also, any recommendations
for oil pumps on this engine?

Hi Paul,
Hold the head of your quarter inch ratchet between your thumb and
fore fingers, and twist about five pounds of torque, anything more will
split the gasket:

From my '82 service manual, the 1/4" are 7 ft-lb, and the 5/16" are 11
ft-lb. Use a torque wrench that is calibrated in inch-lbs.

Re: Oil Pan bolts?
 

Yeah, I thought I'd need an inch pound wrench sooner or later. Thanks again
for the advice. let me know about the high volume oil pumps vs. the
standard ones. I need to order one in the next couple days.
