Default Looking for some bolt torque specs...

I need to do some service to my '00 this weekend, and I can't get the service manual in time. Did a search and didn't find what I was looking for.
I'm looking for the torque specs for the manual transmission fill/drain plugs and the serpentine belt tensioner pulley bolt (the one that the pulley spins on). I have a/c if that affects the tensioner spec.
If anyone can check these in the service manual for me, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

If there's already a list of torques/capacities out there, I guess that wouldn't hurt either.

Anybody out there with a service manual handy? Otherwise it's going to be the "wrist-clicker" torque wrench for me!

I don't have my manual handy, but "from the old school" 30 ft. pounds should be close. I don't think it is that critical. As soon as I get back from the city, I'll look it up if you want the "exact" numbers.

Here are the numbers you are looking for.

Idler pully, center bolt........16 ft. lb.
Filler plug......................33
Drain plug......................29

Awesome. Thanks so much. Tiny car service, here I come! (a nice break from my 3/4 ton Dodge)
