This document is a Service Data and Specifications (S.D.S.) page (page MT-30) from a manual transmission/transaxle section of a factory service manual, uploaded to the gallery of a 1990 Nissan Micra. It provides tightening torque specifications in two tables, with values given in N·m, kg-m, and ft-lb. The 'Installation' table covers transaxle installation fasteners: support rod to transaxle (31-42 N·m), control rod to transaxle (6.3-8.3 N·m), select stopper bolt, rubber holder nut, rubber holder to body (all 3.1-5.0 N·m), and speedometer pinion gear (3-4 N·m). The 'Transaxle unit' table covers internal and case fasteners: clutch housing to transmission case (16-21 N·m), return spring plug (20-29 N·m), 5th & reverse check ball plug (16-21 N·m), shift check ball plug (9-12 N·m), shift rod plate, guide plate, and reverse bracket assembly to clutch housing (all 6-8 N·m), switch to transmission case (2.5-3.9 N·m), bearing retainer to clutch housing (16-21 N·m), drain plug (10-20 N·m), and final gear to differential case (74-88 N·m). A reader can use this page to correctly torque fasteners during transaxle removal, installation, and overhaul.
