when using a torque wrench that is numbered in ft.lb. and the spec
says torque to 200 in.lbs.... to do this conversion i just divide 200
by 12 correct ?? example--- 200 in.lb. divided by 12 = 16.666666
ftlbs....round it up to 17 ft.lbs. is this correct and i would guess
you would do the exact opposite to go the otherway ??? thanks for
the help, scott

Scott,
I sent an answer directly to you, not the list, but yes, you thought
is correct. inch/lbs X 12 + ft/lbs

FWIW, my A13 does it warm or cold. I've ceased worrying about it.
