Take your pick. I got more.
On a related note, Joey hooked me up after changing out the fluids last night so I no longer need to borrow a torque wrench.

Dude! A torque wrench for spark plugs, really?!?
I could lend you my hands since they can seat spark plug crush washers pretty well..

I would rather trust myself vs an unknown torque wrench but that's probably because I've been working on cars since I was 14 and was the neighborhood bike mechanic before that.

Ask Joey or Brian as they did the work. I think everyone here is well aware of their high quality work. And if you don't know, now you know!

I was asking for you since you want things done right, I'm surprised you didn't ask that question and relied on the trust of others. A torque wrench is nothing without a mechanic to back it up with good judgment/knowledge.
