Hi,
I never realized how many bolts this uses. LOL
As far as the torque sequence, see pic 1 below. Pic 2 provides the torque specifications. Please note that the torque is in inch-pounds and not foot-pounds.
Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.
Take care,
Joe

Follow the valve cover bolt torque sequence in the service diagram and tighten to the specified values in inch-pounds, not foot-pounds.
