how tight?

I've got two torque settings in my manual for the oil drain plug, one at 36ft/lb the other at 43. I need to get this right as my s2 has a plastic sump. Can someone tell me the correct figure please? It may be completely different from those mentioned.

Try 36 and check for leaks.

I have used 36 on many of the S2 plastic sumps with no leaking.

Good luck
