i use a regular ft. pds torque wrench on my engine ,but specifications are
calling for pd. inches torque??i am guessing that the conversion is around
12 in. per ft.?? so the torque is calling for around 18-20 pd. inches torque
that on my ft. pd. wrench is about 1 1/2 to 2 ft. pds.?????? how close am i
and just what would be the formula for converting this"?????

You are ok with the formula, but you cannot get this reading on a ft/lb
torque wrench.
