Camshaft bolt loose

[plaindrifter]

I had reason to take the main bonnet off my Tuscan S the other day(see my other discussion topic on misfiring)and noticed that the camsshaft bolt was very loose. How can this have happened? Anyone experienced this? I now need to tighten it to the correct torque and cannot find reference to that torque anywhere. Anyone able to help?

From your other thread do you mean a bolt holding the cam cover, where you've removed the plug cover, or one of the bolts on the cam bearing caps?

Sorry for the confusion, its the bolt on the main pulley at the bottom of the engine, crankshaft bolt?

The crank damper bolt ?
