I'm a journeymen Milwright I work on all sorts of manufacturing equipment. You think muriatic acid is fun? try working with caustic beads melted at 900 degrees to clean parts! That ???? hardens and adheres to anything. And it burns like a mother????er when you get it on your skin. I can go on for days about the fun things I've done over the years. haste does make waste, whats the point of rushing through something when you might overlook the obvious. I've seen it way too many times, people rush through a job and a few hours later sometime not even that long BOOM!
Oh and about the adjustable wrench what good does the right size do you when it still strips the hex off the nut? the right size still didn't work, I had a 3/4" drive socket on there with a 6' pipe hanging off the end of the ratchet, it wouldn't budge. Thats how tight my egr tube was to the stock manifold. Like I said before I've seen numerous people run into this problem. Sometimes all the heat in the world and 10' of breaker pipe still can't break ???? loose. Trust me I've been there and done that. When you start torquing bolts in excess of 3000 ft lbs on a daily basis you'll understand.
