Hello to the few who are left here, I had a question about torque specs… is there a link somewhere you all use for torque specs? I thought there was one here at one point but I haven’t found it yet.
Specifically looking for the water pump and the thermostat torque specs. I think it’s 40 and 9 lbs if I remember correctly from the last time I did it…

All the torques are listed in the Factory Service Manual.
You can find it here for reading or for downloading for future reference.

In the 2005 FSM,
See Section 9, torque specifications start on page 185
The torque below is for the water pump housing nuts, but should be very similar for the torque for the water pump itself to the housing. (*I just use the old tighten until it feels right, but I do have 50 years of experience turning wrenches to relay on.)
DESCRIPTION -------------- N·m ------ Ft. Lbs. ----- In. Lbs.
Water Pump Housing Nuts - 24.4 --------18 ---------- 212
Thermostat Housing Bolts - 27.5 ------- 21 ---------- 252
