I installed new plugs today in my ES300. Overall went well. I did take off plenum (and installed new gasket) for better access to rear set
My question is what is the proper torque for the hex bolts and 2 nuts holding the plenum to the intake?
Also, should i recheck the torque in a few days time because i did install a new gasket on the plenum?
Thank you

Excellent - it has the torque spec - thank you - someone may have had them off before and really cranked them down. I had to use my larger breaker bar to loosen them

I checked the files you provided but cannot find 14-7. I am curious if there was a tightening sequence to them - I may be over thinking it...
