Lycoming specifies 35 ft lb for plugs. I just snug up the wires.

Thanks Steve and Carl. Steve you are spot on with Carls’ facts manual for torque setting. Carl that’s great reading material. I printed that out for my NEW facts manual for my plane. My oil analysis reading sheets too! Carl I find that pdf file EVERY builder should have in his/her book keeping for their plane. Much appreciated and yes I did get them torqued tonight. Didn’t get back to you right away because had the watch my two State college football teams play. Yes they did!
