GM 3800 Spark Plug Torque Spec
Does anyone know the torque spec for the spark plugs on a
GM 3800 Series II. Its in a 2000 Buick Regal. NOT super charged. It's the wifes car, runs good, but I figured it's time for some routine maintenence. Also maybe you know the torque for the break caliper retaining bolts. This car's getting ready for new sets of pads. 4 wheel disks, thats not any different than 2 wheel disks, right? Just twice as many wheels? Thanks in advance. |

I tried that. Though the info covers some vehicles from the 50's
through 2000, they don't cover a 2000 Regal. I looked at other models with the same engine, but the tune-up section gives a very basic overview, and dosen't give torque specs. Thanks for the idea though. |

I have an Alldata account for my 3800 Reatta, and will see if they have a torque spec. It shouldnt be too much different for your 3800, I would hope. |

The Alldata information shows 7-15 poundfeet torque for the spark plugs, except for one earlier (84-85 FI) engine which shows 15 poundfeet only. |
