Hi,

Wondering if someone could tell me what the manufacturer torque wrench setting is for tightening spark plugs in BA Turbo? I've done a search and couldn't find any answers and I'm looking at replacing the plugs but don't want to over tighten or leave to loose.

17Nm for BF..but just doing them up tight without a torque wrench should be fine afaik

Fantastic, thanks for the info, wouldn't think their would be much difference between a MK2 BA and BF with the settings.

not that many people do it but using the correct torque is a good idea, too tight can cause the spark plug body to break or loosen the porcelain internally, too loose can cause detonation etc.
