I cant believe it is 7 ft lb. Did you add a decimal in error?

@JeffBowlsby


You're right Bruce I should have questioned that.

Turns out its more likely "7.0 mkg" = 50 ft lbs.

Of the several torque value tables in the Tech Specs book, only one has the units mkg indicated all other tables do not show units.
