Getting different numbers when inquiring about plug torque values for Lycoming 0-320. Looks like 30 ft. lbs. Sounds tight to me...Is this correct??
Thanks...Chris
anyone have any bright ideas?
what about those colour coded torque stick/extensions from the auto parts store? I think they flex or 'give' when the correct torque is reached, so you could apply pressure with more dewices!?
I picked this thread just 'cause it has the best title.
I know the Lyc. spark plug torque is 420 in/lbs or 35 ft/lbs, but there's always those one or two plugs you can't get a torque wrench on.....using a U-joint ruins the torque transfer.

The newer baffle kit designs utilize a hole in the side baffles for passing a socket extension through.
When not in use, a plug is inserted in the hole.
