I haven't heard anyone talk about using an impact wrench vise breaker
bar, etc.<br>
Some place I read that you should use an impact wrench with a tap when
trying<br>
to get a broken bolt out. The reason was that an impact wrench will
only rotate 7 or 15 det. Not enough to break the tap. Where
as a wrench/breaker bar will over <br>
torque the tape and break it.<br><br>
So I'm thinking between the hammering, and multiple rotation attempts per
minute,<br>
it might help break the plug loose.<br><br>
