pamco advance rod question?

[nic81xs]

does anyone know the torque specs for the ten mill. nots on the advance rod for the pamco ignition?

Even though they are 10 mm wrench size, they are most likely a 6 mm thread. Measure the thread, and if they are 6 mm ,then 6 ft-lbs ( or 72 in-lbs) should work fine. Make sure you use a lock washer on both ends of the advance rod.

My first post was 7 ft-lbs, but just found 6 ft-lbs listed in the Haynes manual.
