[T3] Spark Plug Tightening
<x-flowed>I replaced my plugs. Turns out I had the wrong type, Bosch Platinum, instead
of W8AC.
Anyway, when I replaced and started the car, it ran as if one 3 cylinders.
When I removed the plugs to see if one was cracked, the front right plug gap
was completely shut. Obviously, I over tightened it. I replaced with only
hand-on-socket pressure, then about 1/2 turn with ratchet. Is this the
proper torque?
