Default Fuel Filter torque

1999 x308 4.0
Does anyone know the torque setting for the 2 female fuel line nuts on the ends of the fuel filter?
I have looked into JTIS but I cannot locate anything in this regard.


(Have just welded a nut on a few spanners and created my own claw spanners to use for these type of nuts (ie for brake lines, fule lines).. just pop on the torque wrench)
Merry Christmas!
regards
Peter

Peter,

Although it's not in JTIS for X308, the torque figures are quotes for the XK8:

filter bracket to body: 5-7 Nm.
fuel pipe union nuts: 26-34 Nm.

It has to be the same for the X308.

that's a big torque setting for such a small nut
can anyone confirm for x308?


The JTIS is hopeless as a manual really..
