    What torque do you need? My torque wrench can do 2-10Nm. Depending on timing I might be able to meet you in town at some stage.

    15 inch pounds is about 1.7Nm. My torque wrench doesn't go that low. Sorry.

    Ah right. If you're happy with 18 inch pounds then mine can do it.

    Drop me a PM with details of when you'll be in town and I'll see if I'm available.
