V6 or V8? Start with the middle right side,then across to the left,then
from one diagnal corner to the opposite side,and vice versa,till they are
all snug. I'd recommend using a torque wrench and getting the proper
torque values when doing head,and or intake manifold work,just to be
safe, but an estimated 50ft. lbs. should be pretty sufficient.
You might be able to get the specs in a Chilton's manual. Good luck.
if its a manifold bolt its probably from the hole in the centre of the manifold- it's hidden away underneath the pipes, you can feel for it, it is there in the middle out of view on the bottom.
it is often overlooked...
It is on the Driver side of engine in between the COP's (Coil on plugs) simply unplug the wire use a 19 or 3/4 deep well socket and unscrew it and put it new one... The whole process should only take 10-15 minutes.
