Default Torque

The mechanic who is helping me with my car said he used the hammer method to put it on, then a torque wrench in reverse and it came out to about 75 ft/lbs. I told him about the 220 number and he said "no way", it is obvious when you can't move it anymore and is easily confirmed with a hammer. I will test it tomorrow again when I pick up the car and post the results.
