im not sure if this is what is recommended but its what i did. i tightened the bolts starting from the inside one out. i just hand tightened them until i felt that they were on there tight enough. sorry but i dont have any actual figures for ya

 

yeah, go inside outward. I believe the shop manual says torque to 14-19 ft-lbs. Hope that helps

 

TQ spec: 12-16 ft-lbs
Sequence: Don't know, I had heard there was one but could'nt find any reference in the Mazda manual.

Specs where found on page c-86 in the engine portion of the mazda manual.

Peace
