When I was observed using both my inch pound and foot pound torque wrenches whilst building transmissions at the dealer, I was lambasted and put down. Funny thing, though... I had low single digit recheck/ comebacks, and even fewer troubles that ever came back to workmanship, while the blowhards had many. many more.If you cant tighten a bolt as simple as a idler pully by feel without a torque wrench you probably shouldnt be working on your vehicle just my 2 cents.

When bolts go into soft aluminum, the torque specs are very critical. Perhaps you have calibrated hands!
I think Archimedes was onto something, eh?
