I have for years used a socket wrench on mine & tighten the plug it to its max then 3/4 of a turn & that's it also you need to remember there is a crush washer on the plug for a specific reason I have been under cars where you needed a torque wrench to get the plugs undone never mind get them off when some arsehole has murdered the washer through being a Torque junkie but don't take my word for it there are more technically & mechanically minded experts on here who will put you right I basically know Fook all about cars☺️
