Torque Specs
Hey Guys
I pretty much make a living over tightening things! Has anyone ever printed a resource for torque specs on small engines like the 2 stroke glows I fly? Or should I most likely refer to a general spec for the size faster I'm tightening.

Tommy,
Consider that the weakest link is the aluminum female thread; so be gentle and only strong enough.
Never tight hot aluminum.
