torque wrench.........

[wellcraftv20step]

I am becoming a fan of the Cobalt tools myself. Always bought craftsman in the past, I treasure my old craftsman stuff though as I'm willing to bet the quality will be getting cheaper now. Side note, was just telling my least favorite son in law don't ever order anything from lowes! They will disappoint you every time !!!

Technically a clicker type torque wrench needs to be recalibrated often, where a beam type doesn’t require it.

if you order anything from sears, put it your cart and leave it for a few days, sears will respond with an email stating your items in cart are now on sale, the longer you leave it there, the cheaper it gets

Hah - Spare, you are a genuine treasure - I love it and will definitely try it if the opportunity arises. By the way, did you ever get a chance to look and see if you have an electric choke for my 170 2-barrel carb? If so, let me know how much and I’ll get it done this winter. Thanks

I have a many years old Harbor Freight 1/2” drive clicker torque wrench that seems to agree pretty closely with my son’s Snap-On when I check it but if it’s anything important, I use his. About Harbor freight though, I’ve had good service from a lot of their socket wrench stuff. They have some pretty handy ratchet handles, knurled extensions, etc. and a young diesel mechanic friend said the mechanics in the Cummins shop where he worked all had Snap-On or other top tier brand regular sockets but used Harbor Freight impact sockets - I have a bunch and have never broken one or had it damage a fastener.
