But it was. I checked against a snap on digital wrench.

Yea, that time....

The time it wont read accurately is when you are trying to torque down something important.

Sockets/ratchets/wrenches are one thing, but when it comes to something needing to be torqued correctly (head bolts, rod caps, etc), I'll be damned if I am using an $11 torque wrench.

:dunno: My rod bolts, head bolts and everything is just fine on my motor that I used an $11 torque wrench.

That said, they are torque spec + angle :lol:

Not sure Why it wouldn't be safe to use if it is exactly the same spec as the snap-on wrench I compared it too.
