How tight Misab plates?

[GJUK]

 

How tight are you meant to 'do up' these little chaps?

I've just bought some new ones as mine were a little perished and I fell that they could have been letting some air in to the inlet/carb causing some firing issues.

 

I've also bought the correct rubber mounting kit and new m8 nuts.

 

Thanks

Probably not as accurate an answer that you are after but I always used to tighten nut until washer stopped being loose and then 2 further turns of the nut. Did me ok but I have no doubt someone would know the correct torque setting?

These are my old ones :-/

Can't see pic for some reason but my old ones perished and cut up quite badly and therefore leaked air

 

I was told to change them and the basics etc before going to the rollers to eliminate silly problems

They should be 'snugged' up fairly tight but still allow a little bit of movement of the carb body. Their purpose is also isolate

the carb from vibrations to a degree also hence not screwing the granny out of them!
