    Use a torque wrench!

    The advice given in the quote should always be followed. Use of a proper gasket won't hurt either. Adding more torque to a leaking plug will lead to damage.
    ..........just to add, a CORRECTLY torqued bolt/nut WILL stay tight. An overtorqued or undertorqued/undertightened bolt or nut won't stay tight.

      BTW, FWIW, 75-140w IS the replacement for 80-90w 'dino' gear lube in ALL applications IF choosing synthetics, even 'todays' mechanical gear components.
