    Torque Specs? Intake manifold and throttle body, please!

    I am in the process of replacing all the hoses/lines under the intake manifold.

    What are the torque specs for the following:
    - lower intake manifold to head
    - upper intake manifold to lower intake manifold
    - throttle body to upper intake manifold

    Thanks!

      Thanks!

      I looked up the nut thread counts on realoem.com and based on the link you provided it looks like for the M42 I should use the following torque specs:

      - M7 intake manifold nuts: 15 Nm (11 ft lbs)
      - M6 throttle body nuts: 10 Nm (7.3 ft lbs)
