Hello, I'm a brand new member here! I am not really mechanically-inclined; however, I have always gotten pleasure out of doing the most basic maintenance such as oil and filter changes which I have been doing for 15 years or so. I have a 2008 Ford Ranger XLT (2.3 L) and a 2014 F-150 Ecoboost.

Even though I have never had a problem with tightening down oil pan drain plugs, I know that torque specs. do exist for my trucks and would like to torque to specs. for future oil changes. That said, it appears that that information is very difficult to find. Does anyone have access to that information? It would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

 

there probably is a spec but you can tell when a plug is tight
