Default Intake manifold torque spec

Hi,
I'm biting the bullet and replacing the intake manifold gasket (in hopes of curing the final small idle variations that I get intermittently in hot weather).

Does anyone know the order and torque spec for the bolts? I know on my V6 minivan, the intake manifold had a certain order they were supposed to be torqued down.

It's an '88 CRX Si 1.6

Thanks.

Tighten the nuts from the center out, following a spiral pattern, in several steps to 16 Ft-lbs. This is out of the 'Haynes' manual. I suggest you get one and keep it in the car, you never know when it may come in handy.

Like PacificDude, I suggest you invest in an FSM/Helms/Chiltons/Haynes manual. They all have this information in it.
