I use this on my telescopes:

It was cheap and readily available. 18 inch-pounds should be in the safe zone (where the wrench is accurate enough).
Otherwise, look at bicycle tools, they have a few 1-5 newton/meter click type wrenches, but the price is too high for a one time use item.

Or, just wing it by hand like every other person with a plastic valve cover does

Because of this thread I dug around and found this:

German made. I did not order it, I put it in my wish list. Every year my wife asks what I want for birthdays and Christmas gifts. For most things through the year if I want something I just get it. I will save this for a her to get me as a present.
