Default Correct Torque setting for installing Spark Plugs in my 1994 H Accord ex

I have a 150lbs per inch, and a 250lbs per inch torque wrench what setting do I want to use for installing new spark plugs. Thanks for any help in this matter.

Well.. unless those torque wrenches can be set less than 15ft lbs I would throw them away and go by feel... that is unless you feel like re-tapping that head

The specs shouldnt be too far off from a 01 accord and it lists 13ft lbs as the torque specs. It also says to FINGER TIGHTEN the spark plugs and then torque to 13ft lbs ... plugs are one component in the engine that does not require super human strength

13 lbf-ft = 156 lbf-inch = 17.6 newton-meter
