Hi,with the inlet manifold as long as the two serfices are clean and the gaskets are being replaced,all you need to do is tighten all the bolts all the way home,right when you feel that the bolt is fully home then tihten it another quarter of a turn, then tighten every bolt this way and there wont be a problem.
I have never used torque settings for manifolds and never in my 30 years of working on cars had a problem with water leaks from the inlet maifold.
well hope this was some use to you all the best and good luck with the rest of the work you are doing.

I am wondering where the ignition control module is located on my 1991 Olds Cutlass Cruiser SL?

I will assume it is a 2.5 liter. The control module is bolted to the back of the block underneath the intake manifold. The assembly incorporates the crank sensor, module and coils. Just follow the spark plug wires and you will find it.

Need to replace intake gasket 1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera

I am doing intake gaskets right now on an expedition and you have to look carefully around and take your time and you will find what is holding you up from taking it out because nowhere in the book does it state you had to take the two bolts out for the thermastat housing on the expedition that I am working on you can also go to auto zone and they can give you a diagram because you will need the torque specs anyways
