[Roadsters] impact wrench / torque wrench

[ljordan704 at netscape.net]

 I was thinking of the impact wrench that you hit with a hammer, no compressor needed. Is that the correct name for the tool?

Impact wrenches work great but, not everyone has an air compressor and some
bolts are inaccessible. The original post was dead on. Use a breaker bar. You
can ruin a good torque wrench or racheting socket wrench trying to loosen
stubborn bolts. It's really hard on the racheting mechanism.
And when the breaker bar can't do the job on its own... Resort to the simple
laws of physics and increase your moment arm by sliding a section of pipe
around your breaker bar.
