Plenum Chamber Torque Wrench Settings

[wedgeman]

Does anyone know what the plenum chamber torque wrench settings are for a 1989 flapper 400SE?

Gonna take mine off over the weekend - I've looked in the bible & on the net & can't find it anywhere...

:confused:

Hardly anything, no more than about about 5 lb-ft. Remember they're small screws into soft alloy and a right b*gger to fix if you strip the threads.
