Getting ready to do a first oil change on my 914 and want to clean the oil strainer as well. I don't have a torque wrench and Autozone has a very inexpensive beam type. I have never used a torque wrench before and wonder if this type is adequate to get the correct torque of 9lbs on the strainer nut? Looks like 2lb graduations on the scale up to 150. The fancy click type wrenches look to be very expensive and many don't go below 10lbs.
Thanks for any input. M |
