    does anyone know how much you should torque the spark plugs on the 2000
    accent (1.5L engine)???

    thank in advance,
    Chris.

  2. Well, your dealing with an aluminum cylinder head so it's not much. I use a
    3/8" pull handle when putting the plugs in but its overkill. Be sure to
    lubricate the threads on the plug before inserting.

    20-30 Nm torque is correct.
    I use antiseize on the threads but i'm not going to swear blind that
    it's the right thing to do. I do it because of some problems i've had
    over the years in a variety of motors.
