Default Spark plug tightening torque

Putting in new plugs, wires, and fuel filter this weekend. Any of you guys know off hand what the tightening torque is for the plugs on a V6 GK?

The specification is there in two kinds of metric as well as imperial units.



If you do not know about hyundaitechinfo, and you plan to work on your own car, you should really spend some time looking around the site. Internet Explorer only, unfortunately.

I use the socket on an extension and put the plugs in hand tight, then using the ratchet, give it about 3/4 of a turn more, or tighten till "snug". lol
