tension bolt question

Hi, I toredown my engine yesterday and out of complete stupidity, I forgot to loosen the tension bolts in the order it says to in the FSM... I was wondering if this is gonna cause any major problems or do I need to replace the bolts or what? Sorry for my ignorance, this is my first time rebuilding and I want to make sure that everthing will turn out okay.

Thanks,
Aaron

Just remember to torque them on in the correct order and go over it 2-3 times in that order

Yea, loosening them in the wrong sequence shouldnt hurt anything, but there is a reason for it, so make sure nwxt time you do that. But as long as you make sure that you tighten them in the right sequence with the right torque you should be ok..
