Hello Triumph Owners wiser than I.  I decided to forgo the hydraulic
pumps and instead went with the Speed Bleeders.  One question -  upon
reading the installation instructions (I learned a long time ago - read
them first) it states to torque  using  "pounds per inch" not "pounds
per foot" .  My torque wrench only references pounds per foot.  My dumb
question is can I still use it?  Speed Bleeders states to torque them to
32-40 pounds per inch.  I thinking that it would be roughly 3-5 lbs
using my wrench.
