★ Top Answer
Regarding the spark plugs of the Toyota Corolla, it is advisable to first tighten by hand and then give a quarter turn more. The manual recommends torquing to 150 lb-in if you have a torque wrench that can handle it; which equals approximately 12.5 foot pounds or just under 17 Nm. It is also recommended to use anti-seizing lubricant on the threads to make removal easier in the future. While this step is optional, based on personal experience, taking preventative measures now can prevent future issues.
