The last mechanic I went to torqued these to hell...what are the chances he also tightened my spark plugs this much?

Never again...my other mechanic never overtorqued things this much.

Impact driver, but the bolt could snap.

Actual oil pan bolt torque is lower than people think, but a fresh crush washer should be used every time.

Now Fords use plastic oil pans, which should be fun with those gorillas.
