[QUOTE="Deadmeat, post: 223619, member: 704"] It's about time for me to check and/or replace the spark plugs on my 25-hp Yamaha. The owner's manual says to torque them to 18.4 ft-lbs but I don't have a torque wrench and hate to buy one for something I'll only do occasionally. I know the problems with cranking the spark plugs down too tight but can I just install them with a socket wrench or do I really need to do the torque wrench thing? [/QUOTE]
