The bolts on a 94 Dodge Intrepid valve cover need to be very tight. You should tighten to 12 N*m or 105 inch pounds.
There are valve cover bolts around the perimeter of the valve cover. You want these tight but not as tight as you can get them.
46-50 ft.lbs. 46-50 ft.lbs.
24 Foot Lbs on clutch cover bolts. 85 Foot Lbs on flywheel bolts. Use lock tight on both set of bolts.
15 to 20 inch pounds should do it, or what feels tight with your fingers.
Check the specs for the vehicle you are working on (You can find them on the net if you do not have the manual) and the torque requirements will be there. Do not over torque the bolts as removing a broken valve cover bolt is a pain. Good luck.
just be sure they are tight i would guess around 20-30 ftlbs
Actually the Housing on a 3.5 Litter is on the Lower Hose comming off the Radiator. Real tight space. 2 10mm Bolts. It is mounted on the Drivers side of the engine block right in front of the Catalytic Converter AnswerFollow the upper radiator hose to the engine--hose should be mounting to thermostat housing
The A/C belt is loose or if it is tight then you could try belt dressing.But most likely will need to change belt. Check to see if the compressor is seized up.
Clean them off and try blue loctite on the threads...
Take off the valve cover. there is about 8 to 12 bolts. just take it off and take off the old gasket, then clean off old gasket residue with a razor knife, then install the new one and put the cover back on. the bolts dont need to be extremely tight.
They don't usually need any special effort, but a little loctite 242 would help.
Just did mine on my 300 cu in Ford 1982. Remove any parts that might be in the way, breather, gas line over the valve cover etc. Remove the bolts around the outside of the valve cover. Remove valve cover. Remove old gasket. Clean valve cover. Install new gasket and re-install cover. Replace bolts. Finger tight bolts first then tighten. If you do not have a torque wrench, carefully tighten down bolts alternating from one side to the other tightening them all down evenly. Do not overtighten, they will snap off into the head.
