[Vwdiesel] Crank Bolt Reusable?

[Rudy]

It lists it in the MK2 Bentley (grey) I can't remember for sure but I think
it's 60 ft. lbs + 90 degrees.  If you order a Crank Bolt for most any later
VW Diesel Engines (14mm Crank Bolt) that's what you'll get

So, same 1.6NA crank and sprocket, just a bolt change?  Maybe one of my
other Bentleys for another model has the info, but I couldn't find it in the
one I was looking in.

Thanks,

Will.
