Hello.
My title states 2003 Jeep Liberty. I have the gasoline 2.4 L 4 cylinder engine. I am in the process of doing a valve job. I unbolt all the parts. I give the automotive machinist the parts. I pay for the parts and machinist's labor. I bolt everything back together.

I have downloaded the 2002 to 2005 parts fiche and Factory Service Manuals (except for 2004 FSM). The problem is that my engine does not exactly match these documents. My engine has a one piece plastic intake manifold and all the documents show a two piece aluminum alloy manifold. I need to know the torque and bolt tightening sequence specifications for the one piece plastic intake manifold.

I would also appreciate any advice about any special assembly techniques and what other parts to replace while I have the engine partially torn down. Besides, the head job, I am replacing the water pump, timing belt, TB idler pulley, TB tensioner.

I am also getting ready to buy a low range inch pound torque wrench and I would appreciate any advice on brand.

Thanks
