Torque Specs

Does anyone know the torque specifications for the Valve covers, spark plugs, and the intake plenum? I have searched this forum and have not had any success at finding it. It would be great IF the FSM was available here. I have different models vehicles and they have FSMs available on their forum. Seeing that there are A LOT of DIY people here, I thought such resource would have been readily available.

Curious why you're taking off the valve covers?

The gaskets are beginning to leak. Otherwise, I would not be tinkering with it just for fun. The work is not the issue. I need the torque specs for the intake plenum and the valve covers.

Veg out, cobber! I'm just curious what's happening as this is your first post in this forum. Major work is uncommon on the 4GS and we're all very curious as to what sort of work the higher mileage vehicles can require!
Why don't you tell us a bit about your car?
