Two EASY questions - TPI

Ok, i hope that this is the right board to post this.

1) Where is the fuel pump fuse located. Which Fuseblock??

2) What (if any) are the torque specs for reinstalling the throttle body to the plenum (4 bolts), and the plenum to the intake runners (8 bolts)? I don't want to strip any alluminum here, but i don't want any vaccum leakes either.

Thanks Guys

fuel pump fuse is located near the battery,, im assuming you are going to take this out because you want to alleviate the fuel pressure.. no need to,, let the car sit overnite, take the gas tank cap off, and release and other pressure by pushing down the schraeder valve.......

all your torque spec needs are found here:

no, dont pull the fuse....... let it sit overnite and then whatever pressure is left will be out when you take the gas cap off and push on the schraeder valve
