What's a dial torque wrench?
Is it one that you wind the handle round to match up with a torque level, then it clicks when you do up the bolt to the right torque?
Or is it one of those cheap-arsed jobs drom Draper with the straight pointer that reads as the bar bends?
I have both either way.

It's one of those that doesn't go 'click' 'click' 'snap' when you use it!

It has a dial that shows the amount of torque being applied and you just stop when the pointer reaches the correct figure.

It's need for doing up the nuts when putting the heads back on, I guess the 'click' 'click' 'snap' approach could snap the bolts at the sort of torques that the manual is on about.

Are going to be down on Wednesday mate, if so could I borrow it until the weekend?
