Torque Wrench Question..

[steelcity]

This is regarding the installation of the Plenum Spacer that I'm working on.

I found an inch-pound torque wrench that goes from 20lbs and up.

When installing the TB back on, it says to do 10 lbs- 30lbs- 50lbs.

What happens if there is no 10lbs on the torque wrench? Can you just do 20 lbs and then go to 30 lbs and then 50 lbs?

If it were me, for the first. I'd just go with hand tighten. 10lbs is about the same.

Hand tighten with your fingers, not a wrench or anything. 10 in-lb is an incredibly small amount. I can do between 50-60 in-lb with just a screwdriver type socket wrench, well over that with an actual socket wrench.
