Hello friends.
As title states, I'm looking for a recommendation on a digital torque wrench for working on my 914 (must go as low as 9 FT-LBs for the oil strainer). I see a lot of options out there via Google searching and the prices are all over the map. I know this community knows their tools, so I trust your recommendations on an accurate, reliable, affordable digital torque wrench. |

I always hear that argument, but truly high end digital tools don't have that problem. IE: A set of Mitutoyo digital calipers or micrometer will go years between battery changes. They consume less power than a cheap HF or less cheap Fowler set does turned off. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
Sorry, no feedback on digital torque wrenches though I would love to have a set. |
