    2008 TE450-What are the tightening torque's for the oil filter screen bolts and hex bolt on the left side of the motor? I can't find it anywhere and it can't be what they call for in the manual. Thanks, Jason

    I can't give you the specific torque spec.'s, so "sorry" up front. I couldn't find them either. However, I can tell you that if there is anyway possible to get a wrench in there and tighten that thing, do it. Do not use a ratchet. Also, I can tell you that (for some stupid reason) those bolts are not very hard. They WILL twist off VERY easily. I have broken both of mine. Luckily, I was able to drill them out. I had to use a torx bit to get the first one out because I didn't have an easy-out that small. The second time, I had my easy out on hand. Replace them with some higher-grade bolts or socket head cap screws with lock washers. Whatever you do, be careful not to overtighten them. It's incredibly easy to do.
