In most vehicles, the oil sump bolts torque is about 8-9 ft*lb and that is all.
Sometimes it is difficult to fit a torque wrench under the car, so I use the "1-finger" trick @ 6" away from the wrench. Use only one finger. This is because: 8 ft*lb is the same as 16 lbs at 6" away on your ratchet. The human 1 finger rarely has more strength than 16 lbs.
