Did you get what you needed? The FSM says 19.6 Nm or 14 ft-lbs torque on the spark plugs.

Where did you find that? I searched the FSM and came up empty-handed.

Thanks.

Info is part of a picture, which Adobe Reader doesn't search.

FWIW, it's page EM-16 in the 2009 FSM.

I assume "kinda tight" is not an acceptable answer?

Lots of the torque specs are listed in the exploded diagrams, but only some are listed in tables in the specifications sections.

Good info
