Torque specs
 

Hey, just a quick question. Would anybody be able to tell me the torque spec for the head and manifold. I ordered a chilton manual and its going to be about 2 weeks before it comes in. Just thought iwant to start on it before that. Thanks

2 be honest there alot of problems. but the main thing is its missfiring. missfire a bit during idle and alot when i cruise between 2-3k rpm. There an exhaust leak on the top right side of the manifold. You can feel the exhaust pushing out of that side. I am full spooled at nearly 4.5k around. I was told i might have a boost leak or vacum leak. I just need to find out if i do have it , where its coming from. Also 3 engine error code, which i was told from the mitsu dealer that its caused due to the purge solenoid not hooked up i guess, missfire, and MAP sensor or something. .Kinda forgot. soo i kind of have my work cut out for now. Suck cuz i just bought it used and already there alot of things i need to do.
