Default 03 S-Type 4.2 Spark Plug and Coil Torque

I know I read it somewhere and I thought I wrote it down, but I can't find it now.

Anyone know what the torque should be on the spark plugs and coil bolts?

Thank you!

Brian

27 Nm for spark plugs and 5 for the coil bolts.
Just for the record, 15 and 6 respectively for the 3.0 engines.

Thank you - appreciate the info!

For those of us Across the Pond, that converts to:

27 Nm = 19.914178030479 foot pounds for the plugs (which seems really high to me, but I proudly plead ignorance)

and

5 Nm = 3.6878107463850003 for the coil bolts
