Torque specs

[hoytvectrix]

I have the exhaust cover off my 1990 yamaha 50ESD-JD because I had a rock stuck in the exit port of the cooling system. On the cover it says .8KGM, which I assume is .8 kilogram meters of torque. My question is is that the torque for dry bolts, or should I put a little oil on the bolts before I put them back in? If applying oil is recommended, is there a different torque that goes with that?
Thanks

Anybody have an idea or preference for this? I'm wanting to put the motor back together tonight

Re: Torque specs

Torque specs are for clean, original condition bolts of course, not with scale on threads, not wet with oil....I usually walk over to a brush
wheel on a bench grinder and clean my bolts....but between the two, oil is better than the opposite way with chaulky residue or scale....
