The counts describe this library, not market availability. Source page numbers are the labels stored with each record; PDF viewer page positions can differ from printed page numbers.
Using a torque record
First identify what the torque describes. Engine or system output, often accompanied by an RPM condition, is different from a fastener tightening requirement. The scope column reflects explicit wording in the stored source notes; an unspecified scope still needs the original document.
Keep the unit, thread condition and any additional procedure with the value. A numeric torque entry alone does not tell you whether an angle step, replacement fastener or another assembly instruction applies. Open the cited document before using it.
What the source date tells you
The verification date belongs to the stored record. It is not the vehicle’s build date or a guarantee that the document has not changed. The source link beside each row lets you check the document and page used for that entry. Different rows may cite different documents.
