Oil Canister Torque

Any body know the torque that the oil canister is supposed to be torque on ?

Presuming you are talking about the oil filter housing on your 2010+ RX, I go 90 percent effort - hand tighten, using no wrench or other device of mechanical advantage. Take care not to damage the O-ring and lube it before installing the housing back on the engine block. Mine doesn't leak with this level of effort. I found the dealer and factory to overtighten this housing (typical of the gorillas in service departments).
