Hi,
just new to the forum, need help finding torque setting for 4 bolts which hold the water pump housing onto the rear of the engine crankcase
Basicly doing the timing belt on the better halfs car (2005 reg 206 1.1) and the top stud holding on the water pump broke. So after i removed the pump, i then removed the water pump housing case itself so i could remove the broken stud, but i can't find the torque settings for the four bolts that hold the housing onto the engine block. nothing in hayes manuals or searches on internet, almost like no one knows that the water pump housing doesn't exist. Any advice much appreciated.

Not sure they actually give a torque setting for those, but here is a rule of thumb
