Torque spec for replacing thermostat? (1 Viewer)

Can someone help me with torque spec for replacing thermostat?

Can’t seem to remember or find this anywhere on mud. Last year I replaced thermostat and used Gates. Twice I got PO128 code in last couple of weeks indicating bad thermostat. Must be stuck open since it is taking a little longer to warm up to operating temperature. No overheat issues.

Replacing this time with OEM. Never again will I go with Gates again. OEM from here on out...

Thank you. Greatly appreciated. I knew it was low since it was an aluminum housing. Much appreciated.
