Torque Specifications for the AW4 Automatic


I find it unlikely that you'll need to use this section - not only is the AW4 one of the simplest automatics we've ever worked on, it's also damn near bulletproof - even with regular and severe abuse, it will typically last as long as you care to keep the fluid changed.

Still, here are the torque specifications - "just in case."
