Ummm it doesn`t matter what the wrench is labeled, you convert the spec and torque away ie 1 ft/lb = 12 in/lb etc. you can find converters online for the tricky conversions to newton /mtrs etc [links]

Any OMC 40hp or larger requires 100 foot pounts of torque or more on the flywheel nut. That totally eliminates any inch pound wrench for that use. On the other hand, small screws require torques in the 60 inch pound range. 60-80 is standard for a 1/4" screw. That's only 1-1/2 foot pounds leeway. A real high quality 150 foot pound torque wrench with factory fresh calibration may have an accuracy of a few foot pounds-----WAY too inacurate for that 1/4" screw. A typical spark plug torque is 12-12.5 foot pounds---still not available within the accuracy of a 150 pound torque wrench. Ever wonder why there are so many stripped spark plug holes? more

Neither is more common that the other. To convert, you simply divide by 12 (12 inches in a foot) to go from inch pounds to foot pounds.

Torque wrenches are of different types depending on the purpose for which you want to use them. You may commonly find them among many mechanics and DIY enthusiasts. It generates a click sound once the torque limit reaches hence the name click torque. Its main advantage is that it is effortless to use and quite budget-friendly. However, it may not guard against fasteners’ over-tightening because the wrench can turn even after the click sound. Thus, as soon as the click sound occurs, stop the twist to avoid any over-tightening.

It is important to remember that torque measurements are either in inches or pounds. You may buy a torque wrench inch pound that will not tell you the reading in foot pounds. In case of such a scenario, you will need to convert inches to foot pounds. [links]
