I pulled the intake off and i am replacing the injectors. I got them out last night and cleaned the old gasket off. I'm not so sure the gasket wasnt leaking. i should be getting the injectors today, advance auto had a 15% off of online orders for bwd injectors. The only thing now is i cant find a 93 4.0 intake torque sequence. my haynes manual has the torque for the studs, then the nuts, but nothing about what order to bolt these in. Anybody know what order these should be torqued down in?

I don't know. If the gasket kit doesn't have instructions then I would do it in three stages, starting in the center and working my way out in a clockwise direction.
Good luck,

Richard

They're like this

--1 3
5 4 2 6 > front of engine.

They can be done 3-4-2-1-6-5, but you just need that cross pattern. I spin the nuts on barely finger tight, then do it all with a 1/4" ratchet. Usually taking 3-4 steps to tighten it fully. Doesn't have to be that tight at all, so long as it's torqued evenly. You will see it want to visibly cock/cant/skew if you don't spin the nuts down all the way first or over tighten one before you move on.

Oh, you were talking about the lower intake. You didn't need to take that off to do the injectors. Probably didn't hurt to clean it though.

I torqued mine evenly from the center out to (Spread?) the intake to make good contact.
