Subject:Why Must I Use a Bar Type Torque Wrench On Cylinder Head Bolts?

Why must I use a Bar Type Torque Wrench on the Cylinder Head Bolts?  While I
have 3 click type torque wrenches I do not own a bar type.

Is the Bently manual wrong on this?  As it is about removing the crankshaft
pulley, and Fuel Injectors?

Would setting a Click Type Wrence to 1 ft/lb over spec work?

I don't want to go buy a bar type wrench.

Thanks,

Cory
