Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Asked on June 14, 2021
I recently replaced my thermostat flange which is made of plastic. Unfortunately, I didn’t find any torque specs for its bolts in the manual. Since, plastic parts break easily, I’m afraid of over-tightening the bolts. How can I make a safe guess about the acceptable amount of torque for such a plastic part? How tight do you usually tighten a plastic flange?

If you are worried about the bolt coming loose, you can apply some low-strength threadlocker.

Should come with an o-ring, tighten to 10 ft-lb or 14nm.
