Hi Folks, just wanted to write an update for this thread. Since the time I wrote the above information I have learned a lot.
The plugs should be torqued to 25-28ft lbs to keep them in. The guy at blownoutsparkplug.com has the right information. I changed my plugs and put them at 14lbs and within 10,000 miles I had one come loose. I torqued them up to 28 and have not had a problem since and now have 170,000 on the v10 van.
I would not use never seize on the plugs, it will only aid the plug coming loose.
I didn't want someone using the information and causing a problem in their engine.
Andrew.
