Torque specs?

Does anyone have the torque specs for the oil drain bolt, oil filter, lug nuts and various others?

I did a oil change on my wife's PR5 and want to make sure. Couldn't find anything in her manual - and I'm pretty sure they would be the same as a Honda (oil plug - 7ft/lbs, lug nuts 80ft/lbs, filter - hand tight.)

On the '90 Pro, the oil pan is 22-30 ft.lbs. Lug nuts are 65-87 ft.lbs. Oil Filter is 1/4 turn past the gasket contact--in other words-hand tight. I'm guessing not a lot has changed on these specs.

I just looked in my P5 manual and on page 7-11 the recommended torque for the lug nuts is 65-87 ft-lbf. There was no mention of the oil pan torque and the filter should be as mentioned in the other posts or as you say.

Cheers

Thanks again guys I did the oil change already. I didn't have the right sized socket for her lug nuts. They are HUGE!
