Seriously, a torque wrench is not needed for spark plugs. Get them fully seated and apply enough pressure to make sure they will stay that way. Just don't try to stand on the ratchet handle to torque them down..... If you are worried about them not wanting to come out when the time comes, add some Anti-Sieze to the threads of them and they will spin right out upon removal.....

Always use anti-sieze and just install them snug.
