Correct torque for water pump and pulley
I am installing a new water pump and coolant filter and I have come across conflicting torques for the water pump bolts and water pump pulley bolts. I have a subscription to AllDataDIY and it has 48 lbs/ft for both and I found another write up for water pump remove and replace that says 18 lbs/ft. I have always trusted AllData so I tried the 48 lbs/ft and it started to feel like it was going to strip out so I stopped. Just wondering if 18 is correct.
Thanks,

48 seemed high to me too. I hope I didn't damage the threads...
