Hi Dennis... for years I've just run a straight line to my air tools-the connections usually just match up from tools to the hoses... no air water separator or anything else. I keep the tools well oiled.... 

You may have an issue of volume of air, but just taking lugs off probably not. Just take your time for each lug and use the right air pressure for the tool. I'm assuming you have something like a pancake style compressor...the bigger the tank the longer it will work your tools before the compressor kicks in.

I also have started using eye protection every time I use impact tools...too many horror stories...

I also always follow up my work on lug nuts with the torque wrench.

I just opened it up and read the directions and it suggesting that I need an intricate plumbing set up for an air compressor. do I really need to do this or can I use my one and a half horsepower compressor that I use for all my nail guns and construction. I was hoping to use the air tool impact wrench rotate my tires on my van Agone that would've been a plus but now I don't know how to plumb this up if I have to.
