Torque value of oil drain plug?

[belrix]

I will be changing oil in an NCX this weekend and forget to lookup the torque value of the oil drain plug.

Can someone help me out?

Thanks

Although a lot of folks here, myself included, just snug it down tight by hand and have no problem with it.

To quote bduffey, Although a lot of folks here, myself included, just snug the filter down tight by hand and have no problem with it. But i do use a wrench on the drain plug. Just don't use the "Gorilla Grip!

That's what I have always done, including my automobiles. Too much anal technology can be overkill and burdensome! Just remember you are working with soft aluminum! If the filter or plug begins to leak, just tighten it up a little more.
