    Personally never use a torque wrench on engine cover bolts, just do them tight enough so as not to come out unless intended. Bear in mind your not putting bolts in the Titanic boiler:D

    not much around 11/12 nm, it's just as important to make sure to torque them in a Criss cross pattern

    12 is too high, dont go over 10 nm into cast aluminium.
