Have you noticed???

Have not noticed the marks on the engine, but see the yellow ones on the frame and on and bolts. Maybe they mark them after they are properly tightened?

In theory yes, but I've seen seat assemblers mark 'em before they torque 'em! If the assembler misses one, the seat moves on, then the torque gun is 'off-count' for the next seat and has to be reset. The worker then doesn't remember what he did, so not one but two seat sets have to go to rework to get everything sorted out in time to get sequenced back in for shipment to the auto assembly plant. I can only imagine what a pain this little oversight would be on truck frames should it happen......
