<snip> > Can you give me an explanation as to why a clicker > is not accurate enough. <snip> Clicker wrenches click upon REACHING the specified torque. It has been my experience, when torquing VW boxer heads, that one must HOLD the specified torque for a period of time because the wrench is likely to continue to move slowly for a bit. That being said, it's my recommendation that even when using a beam or dial type wrench .... don't stop upon REACHING the specified torque. Hold it at the specified torque until the wrench no longer moves. Mike '85 Westy '84 GL __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
