18 ft.-lbs. if memory serves me correctly...I use a torque wrench on mine too. The oil filter is supposed to be 22 ft.-lbs. but that's almost two full turns after gasket contact...I usually just use an oil filter wrench and go one full turn after gasket contact. Haven't had an issue with either yet.
