some new problems
 
1. I got some kind of fluid dripping out of my tail pipe(looks like water). I dont have the a/c on and it starts like 5 seconds after i start the car.

2. Would it be alright to super glue my emblem back on ?

3. Can someone tell me what to take off of the engine to get to all of the spark plugs?(i Cant really understand the manual.)(im new to cars)

Its probably water from condensation. Its normal

I would suggest using 3M heavy duty indoor/outdoor double stick foam tape...can get it from Home Depot, or probably any other good hardware store.

you need to take off your intake accordian hose, and the throttle body. The gasket on the TB is reusable, just mark or make note of what hoses go where. And dont over-torque the bolts, they only go into alluminum and its easy to strip out the manifold.

is there specific torquing for the manifold?

I cant find my manual right now, but I usually do alot of that kind of stuff by feel. Im usually within afew pounds of spec just from experience. But anyway, I would guess they arent meant to be tq'd over 20lbs. A good firm twist on a ratchet should be enough, no need to reef on it.
