Oil Pan Drain Plug Torque

Does anybody have the torque spec from the factory manual for the oil drain plug?

Since it is going into cast aluminum, I don't want to take any chances....

RE: Oil Pan Drain Plug Torque

The engine block is aluminum, but the oil pan is steel. I don't think Mazda has torque spec. for the plug. Just don't over tighten.

Found a torque on another site. And yes-it is a cast aluminum pan on the v6.
