So I did a starter job on my car. Was horrible haha. All I need now is the torquing sequence for the upper and lower intake manifolds. My car is together now but has a huge air leak. That's why I need it because I need to fix it haha. Any who if you guys can help me find it it'd be awesome. I've been searching for a couple days already to no avail.



My car. Have a mountain of parts waiting to be installed.

Maybe a gasket got out of place. Air leak!

Torque spec sequence diagram,

Already had the specs, need the tightening order

I don't believe there's an actual sequence though I could be wrong. I would just torque them in a star pattern like you would do a tire to evenly distribute the pressure. This is what it say's in the FSM.

(b) Place the intake manifold assembly on the cylinder
heads.
(c) Install and uniformly tighten the 6 bolts and 4 nuts in several
passes.
Torque: 18 N·m (185 kgf·cm, 13 ft·lbf)

jaaa

Just did my starter on an 96. I started in the middle at 10ft/pds and then worked progressively outward. Then went to 13 pounds and did the same pattern. I actually did it twice with no problems(had a coolant leak on my first attempt on assembly).

Turns out Injector is leaking air. Lol yup. Oops

I don't know the gen 2's but on the gen 1 there is zero reason to remove the injectors to remove the intake. Its just something else not to have to deal with when doing the starter.

No need to remove injectors on the 98 either.
