    Bought this to get the timing belt tensioner bolts torqued. It has the smaller head and worked great. Very nice tool and I got it at Menards. I’d show you pictures of my garage but it is a disaster!!

    Those bolts get torqued to less than 20 ft-lbs?

    Yup. I see that. 250 in-lbs is only like 20 ft-lbs which is pretty low.

    It may be a low spec if it’s a bolt going into a cast aluminum part?

    Hmmm never looked it up I torqued to Timmy the Toolmans video at 240 inch pounds. Should’ve looked I guess....I did find a few things on his videos that he didn’t catch that would’ve made fix a lot easier. Which is true with any video or job.
