Always get a minimum of 2 torque wrenches, one 3/8th drive for 0-22 ft lbs , a second one that is 1/2" drive that may do 20-150 ft lbs, give or take. You won't break bolts this way by using too large of a wrench on smaller bolts. I've actually got 4 of them but that's just me.

 

I have a KOZ in a drawer somewhere.......

I can't believe the one he tested was reversing (and at very low torque). The Harbor Freight (Pittsburgh) held to 225lbs.

Sadly, that's an overall representation of how far Sears has sunk.


I have a lot of cheap Harbor Freight winners.

 

I have read up on some articles/posts by those who calibrate these things. The one thing to carry away, that I did not know, is to "zero" the torque wrench when you are putting it away. If you leave them at used settings, they will over time fall out of accuracy.

 

Yep, very important to zero back the torque wrench if you have a clicker-type. Thank God for digital wrenches.

 

Where do I get a factory service manual?

 

I got one from s2ki, but you can search ebay for a burned CD version. The other option is to see if Honda will sell you one, i suppose.

I like the paper versions, easier for me to use. I back it up with DIY with my iPad.

10, 12, 14, 17, and 19 will pretty much take any honda apart.
