I took apart the lower intake on my vehicle listed above and cleaned it up. I went to put it back together and cannot find this part and figure out what it is or what goes there?

Hi,

Is it possible for you to get a couple of pictures of the part and upload them for me to see? There really isn't a lot at the lower intake other than the manifold, so I'm not sure what you have.

Let me know.

Hi,

I'm glad you figured it out. As far as the torque specs are concerned, I attached a pic below that provided the torque and the sequence to tighten them.

The torque is listed in newton meters which is 33Nm. That is equal to approx 25 foot-pounds.

Let me know if that helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
