alright.. so the only thing stopping me from pulling the cord on this motor I've been working on for almost a year now, is that the rod isnt torqued down right..
so it took me months to finally get over to advanced autoparts to buy this $20 torque wrench that I assumed would work right.. it didn't. Apparently Taiwanese tools are not good quality.. who knew :doah: im not gonna go into detail, but this thing was just all around the most lame tool ever (it wasn't even good enough to be called a socket wrench).. not only that but I noticed that it was too high of measurements than I needed. so I returned it and found out that advanced auto parts doesn't have anything else.. they said check sears.
I checked sears and sure enough.. here it is.. exactly the measurements I need.

79.99!? :scared: but the other one was $20 and had higher specs (even thought they made NO sense) I'm sorry but I just don't get this.. is it expensive cause of the brand name?? I just don't know..
so I guess my question is.. where can I get a torque wrench that goes down to 70 in/lb for a decent price.. OR rent one.. I just REALLY want to get this motor done.
