Default C5 Torque Specs

Hey guys,

I'm looking for torque specifications for the windshield wipers on a 1999 corvette. Also, is there a source on here or another site you know of that has torque specs for the whole car? Thanks!

If you are going to be working on your own car, having the factory service manual is invaluable. While there are a few places to obtain torque specs online, they are only as accurate, as the people typing the info.....get the bible, and work with confidence.

Washer Solvent Container Nuts - 8 N·m; 71 lb in

Wiper Arm Nut -25 N·m; 18 lb ft

Wiper Motor Crank Arm Screw - 15 N·m; 11 lb ft

Wiper Motor Module Bolts - 10 N·m; 89 lb in

Wiper Motor Module Upper Bolt - 10 N·m; 89 lb in

Wiper Motor Screws - 10 N·m; 89 lb in

Wiper Transmission Bolts - 10 N·m; 89 lb in

The attached pdf file with 99% of torque values came direct from the ESI (not manually copied). I created this so I could have a quick reference on my Ipod. Has bookmarks for major systems and is searchable. Works great.
