Torque Values

This all was coppied directly (I hope) from the Honda official service manual. if you have doubts about my transcription,
(if it looks funny, check it) check out the scans of the original pages, they can be found here:
page 1-5
page 1-6
Note that I changed the note number on page 1-6 so the html reference would match up. This only affects one line, regarding the thermostatic switch.
