I think it's 13mm bolt 15, 17mm bolt 29??

Can't remember which one is on the old 4.5 engines..

Tom,

The oil pump gear nut is higher than 15 ft lbs....

The oil pump gear nut should be 29 ft lbs with a small dab of blue loctite.?

Cheers

Colin J

Sounds like good news...

torque to 15 ft-lbs and use a little loctite.?

Also recommended to replace with a steel pump gear (if it's aluminum) due to fractures.? Double check to? make sure...

good luck and hope it all goes back together quickly.

If anyone was looking forward to this more than I was, I probably won't make it. New Timing belt broke on the first drive today and I'm pretty stressed?out.?

Not sure I'll be able to get it back together in time for the event.? This car makes me so sad.?

Just?wanted to let you know. I'm going to thrash on it if I can get it back in my garage tonight. I should be able to at least figure out what happened.?

Hi Jeff. If that question is directed to me, the answer is No. Mine is metallic gray. Andy
