I got a nice little torque wrench from AndyC (on special offer)last year which is perfect for cam covers etc. Having said that,I havent learnt how to used it yet.

No worries mate, I'll pop round and give you a lesson.  :y ;D :P

That Halfords card you mentioned before TB sounds great. I remember you mentioning the long wait to get one and that you blagged it. Out of interest how did you do that?

Would be very handy!  :y

Got one of them too. Goes down to 4 or 6Nm IIRC. Handy bit of kit.

On there webistie i thought i saw a bit where it says ur city & guilds certificate or a business card needs to be shown to obtain a trade card. Surely u could make a bussiness card or borrow a mechanics and say  work for them
