Do you have the torque spec for the Throttle body nut and bolts? I had to remove it to replace the spark plugs this weekend but couldn't find the specs.

I'll look when I get home tonight and post the values. I have an F Sport sway bar kit waiting to be installed and I know the instructions list those torque values because those 4 bolts must be loosened to facilitate the installation of the front bar.

You mean nuts? To change swaybar just gotta remove the oil filter housing if i recall correctly. But maybe engine needs raising too I forgot. Btw when you raise the engine it makes the big tube pop off from the air filter box..
