Roger Menadue, the chief mechanic at Warwick, never used a torque wrench, as he
once told me when I met him. You should feel it in your hands he said,
otherwise you are not a good mechanic.
When fixing a drive shaft nut on a Mini its best you knock it on as long till
your socket breaks, was another of his advices. These times are gone and I am
lucky to find reasonably priced Hazet, Belzer or Gedore torque wreches here in
Germany which do the job longer than I live.

I wonder how many healeys out there have not had a torque wrench close to them
in many years. lot of shade tree mechanics back then that had minimum tools
working on these cars.
