torque spec on oil plug for '02 suburban?
Question:
RE/ >Wrench tight,, GEEZ,,, Use common sense
People have said that to me…But I tend to be one of those "Magilla The Gorilla" types… not really stupid (I hope), but sometimes way heavy-handed. Having sheared off my share of bolts, now I like to know the spec – just to do it once and get the feel of it. Pete Cresswell

Too tight and it’ll break the plug gasket and leak all over the place. Common sense is to USE A TORQUE WRENCH. I suppose you tighten your lugnuts with an impact tool as well eh? — Take er’ easy, "Doc" Wrenchin’ since 1992 1988 GMC Sierra SLX aka "Chelsea" 1998 GMC Sonoma SLS aka "Ruby"
