So you could just take it out and put some loctite on the bolts and it would be ok right?

 

For those asking, heres a thread on KDP damage with pics:

This happened to my 91!!!!!!!! I've been stewing over it for 3 years now.... (i did cash-4-clunkers with it and got 4 grand which was what i paid for it... so no huge loss but i bet anything this was it!!!!! driving down the road.... pop... little white smoke and that was it!!!!

 

If you are going to get far enough into it to remove the kdp... then why not just tab it ?????????

 

Because then u would never ever have to worry about the isp again at all because all that would be left to fall out would be bolts.

 

anyone know the torque specs on the timing case bolts so i can check them when i tab the KDP this week

 

i did mine a month ago on my 93 with 290,000 and it didnt move, but i dont what to risk it when im modding it.

 

I am also interested in torque specs

 

Anyone find where the torque specs might be posted?

 

Gear housing 18ft.lbs. , Gear housing cover 18ft.lbs. , Vibration damper bolts 92 ft.lbs.
that's from a 92 factory service manual
