Default thermostat torque spec?
Searched and I found about 5 different specs. One was 9.2 ftlbs, 19ftlbs and like several in the 100 inlbs. Anybody have a link to where I can find the correct torque for a 2005 Neon SXT with the 2.0?
Thanks,

Torqued to 9 ftlbs. Seems to hold so far. Figured the lower was the better for starting out.
