Well, I always fired up my race car before going very far but it stayed in the shop and not in the trailer. Well, back then I didn't have an enclosed trailer but even if I did, I would still unload it.
On the torque wrench....depends on what kind it is and who borrowed it last lol. Had a clicker that was always pretty close when checked against others but it did get checked once at a seminar I attended and it checked good. It got loaned to a neighbor and I told him NOT to leave it tightened up and that's exactly what he did. I noticed no one was home the next morning after he borrowed it the afternoon before. I had this feeling I needed to go check things out and sure enough, it was left out under his carport and sitting on the intake of his truck and tightened up so I took it home and never said a word to him.....as he never said a word to me either and that's the way it was from then on.
Sometimes, even I make a mistake Doug.
