Hey is there any way of torqueing a bolt to the proper torque spec. without having a proper wrench?
Just come over and borrow mine!
So you have an almost 40 year old car and don't want to buy a torque wrench. Do you expect to never work on it again?
That's like wanting to dig a hole and not wanting to buy a shovel. I just don't understand the mentality.
The only work I usually do to my car is change the oil and grease.
If you have a fish scale, pull the required weight at one foot......eg, 30 foot pounds, pull 30 Pounds perpendicular to the handle one foot from the pivot point.

As was mentioned, "Harbor Fright" sells El-Cheapo's for 10 bucks. Not the best, but better than guessing. You will use it again, trust me.
