Oil Cooler / Filter Lines
 

1995 GMC Jimmy SLT 4WD

I can't locate in 2 manuals this torque spec.

Bolt Torque spec for the Bolts which attach the Oil Lines to Oil Filter Adapter and under Engine Oil Feed ?
Web page link ?
Even if it's for a similar vehicle would be sufficient for now.

Appreciate any help.

I seem to remember reading on here when I did mine that it was pretty light. 25 ft-lbs? I've read that if they are over torqued, it will cause the gaskets to fail, and you'll be right back where you started with oil leaks!

not sure. done many of em. just turn till its good hand tight. then another 3/4 turn. done. dont wanna squeeze em too tight or they will leak.

I just replaced mine in the spring. The torque spec is 26 ft-lbs. I seem to recall that you don't want to overtighten them for some reason, possibly because the metal is soft and the fittings could distort.
