New member here, but knowledgeable about cars........I have a 2000 altima w/ the 2.4L and downloaded the FSM from here......going to change the thermostat and need to know how much to tighten bolts to put back the water inlet while reassembling.

How do I make out the torque specs on a the FSM?

thanks for helping,

I don't want to download that specific FSM to make sure, but all of the other Nissan FSM's have 3 different torque specs listed. IIRC it goes as follows; Nm(kg/m, ft/lbs). There's also usually a key down on the bottom right of the page illustrating that on the parts explosions.

German torque specs will be just fine for the water neck. Gütenteit
