LN magnetic torque....
....is less than the OEM plug because the magnetic part inside the outer plug body can “spin” inside the plug body if you over torque it as I explained above.
The Magnet is not aluminum. The Plug is aluminum. You have two different metals and vastly different hardnesses.
So if you torque the magnetic plug to the same level as the OEM plug, the magnet inside the LN plug can break away from the outer ring and spin and you will leak oil.
