Snug. The manual does not specify a torque value. The acorn nuts will pretty well tell you when it is at the bottom of the nut travel.

Snug is not proper...I know there are specific ft lbs of torque especailly on these parts b/c fluid needs to be retained inside the cover.

OK, Henry. I give up. Its not in my manual. Call the dealer and ask him or look it up in your manual.

The torque spec for your valve cover cap nuts is 62 INCH-lbs or 7 N.m
