Not sure if this is a taboo subject but I was wondering if anyone would be willing to loan me their torque wrench for a few days. It's time to swap the spark plugs in my S and I want to make sure I do it right. I promise to love it and cherish it like a... well... a really nice tool should be treated. I'll even buy you a Boba at next Friday's meet. Whadya say?

 

I got a torque wrench, but im located in union city though.

 

+1 I have one you could use but I am in Antioch

 

just make sure you don't use just any type of torque wrench. I might order a snap on torque wrench soon. How soon do you need it?

 

I got one of the beam-style torque wrenches from Sears, about $40 I think.

You can borrow it (in San Jose) if you like, but I doubt you will since a lot of guys I've talked to tend to say the old style isn't as good as the new style...

 

I'm pretty sure my "Summer of Track Days" has come to an end so I'm in no rush to swap the plugs out. Just want to do it right.

 

Aren't you buying the 50-250? If so that won't work. You'll need to get the 5-75 for a job like that.

 

oh i see... I didn't think of that...

Thanks Mac!

 

Craftsman carries decent TQ Wrenches in ft/lb or in/lb for the bolts that use less TQ.

 

Dude! A torque wrench for spark plugs, really?!?
I could lend you my hands since they can seat spark plug crush washers pretty well..
