    This document provides guidelines for installing spark plugs without a torque wrench. It recommends tightening spark plugs a certain amount past finger tight based on the spark plug thread and seat size. For a 14mm or 18mm tapered seat, it suggests tightening 1/16 of a turn past finger tight. While it's best to use a torque wrench, these guidelines can be used otherwise.
