My 1090k kits do not specify tq but I checked about 5 others all appear to be about 2.5in/lbs for the valve and roughly 70 in/lbs for the hex ferrule (nut for sensor).

Make sure you use the proper core the non nickel cores seem to freeze up in the sensor all the time. Also be sure to use a cap.

We replace a ton of sensors for frozen valve cores.

Hope that helps. Sorry for any typos. I'm on my
phone.
