According to one post I read, but can't find now (with excellent instructions) it specifies 17.4 ft./lb. or 24 n-M. I was informed by an experienced mechanic that you should go a bit lower to start with since knock sensors are fairly sensitive to over-tightening and may render useless if stressed too hard. Say 3-4 ft./lb. less to start with.
This post recommends 16 ft./lbs.
