How tite should you spark plugs be on a 5s? I should have asked this before I started. I'm guessing not very tite. Just to the point that they get titer is the point that I think I should stop, but I just thought I'd ask.

If you don't have a torque wrench, you tighten them as much as you can by hand, (you'll need an extension) then tighten them a quarter of a turn with a ratchet. However, this only works with brand new plugs, because it has a new crush washer.
