  Hi all
  Santa was kind enough to bring me a torque wrench, something I didn't
  have before. Until now I've just tightened basic things by feel - the
  wheels should be pretty darn tight, the carb shouldn't be overtightened
  or you'll strip the threads in the intake, so just medium-tight there,
  etc.A
  Where is a good reference for basic things on a Pantera? Specifically I
  need to reinstall the carb, air cleaner, and wheels before taking the
  car back out.A
  Thank you!
