Default Bolt torque specs needed, if anyone has a manual.

2000 accord, f23a4. Going to loan a torque wrench from auto zone this weekend and adjust the valves and change the crush washers on the front brakes (leaking from reused crush washers). I need the specs for the valve cover bolts and for the bolts that attach the brake lines to the calipers. Thanks!

Spec on valve cover bolts is 7.2 ft-lbs or 86.4 in-lbs. You need a 3/8" or 1/4" drive torque wrench to tighten accurately to these low torques, or a beam-pointer torque wrench.

Brake banjo bolt is 25 ft-lbs torque.

You should purchase (automanualsource.com) or download (check Online Manuals post in DIY forum) a shop manual to have accurate first hand info.

good luck
