The Project Farm guy did find that the Snap-On torque wrench is very very good. But Craftsman brand did just about as well. For some reason, he does not test Tekton.Can anyone explain to me how the Snap-On Guy was able to convince me to buy a $600 torque wrench?? Please use small words.
Torqued the Bank 2 cam caps and phasers and reinstalled the valve covers. Removed valve cover on Bank 1, replaced rockers and lifters and the exhaust cam phaser. Yep, just the exhaust.
PRO TIP: Inventory all parts before beginning a project. For example, if you order a set of cam phasers, which consists of 2 intake and 2 exhaust phasers, it would suck, after working all day and well into the night in freezing temperatures in an unheated ramshackle shed, to discover the parts store sent 1 intake and 3 exhaust phasers and the parts are now out of stock.
Not that such a thing actually happened. No sir, not to me. But I do need to run to a local parts store to see if they have an intake cam phaser to have a spare. Just in case. Work will continue today. If I can get a "spare" phaser, I'll be able to start buttoning everything back up.
We recently bought a Craftsman torque wrench for the hangar. It's accurate enough, but the ratchet mechanism keeps jamming up.The Project Farm guy did find that the Snap-On torque wrench is very very good. But Craftsman brand did just about as well. For some reason, he does not test Tekton.
I hope that you find a spare phaser. Having a dud and national backorder sounds horrific.
