Marcarl Posted March 22, 2015 Share #2 Posted March 22, 2015 I just normally make mine tight,,,, my guess would be about 30 lbs, but that might not be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Du-Rron Posted March 22, 2015 Share #4 Posted March 22, 2015 What do I torque the drain plug down to on the oil pan thanks guys I don't have my book I usually use a cheater on the drain plug to strip the threads out real good and then stake the drain bolt in place.

ENG2242 Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share #8 Posted March 23, 2015 Thanks guys, I think I'll go with the proper torque instead of breaking out the ten foot cheater bar!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
