    Water pump bolts

    What is the specified torque for these bolts?
    It keeps leaking on me, and I don't want to over torque them.

    thanks

    M6 bolts are 80 inch lbs, m8- 16ft/lbs
    Do you apply any silicone or dressing on the gasket? is the surface perfectly clean, and smooth. ?

        I didn't use any sealer. Just made sure all the old gasket was scraped off.
