I need an 8 year old girl to tighten things on this car so they don't get broken. Every thing that get's touched seems to strip out. Today's unfaithful event was the oil pressure line at the filter housing. The wrench was a 4 1/2" long 12 mm. How much torque can you put on that? Enough to crack the filter housing.

Then my elbo hits the vacuum check valve near the brake booster and it snaps.

I could have has this thing fired up if it wasn't for the filter housing cracking. Thankfully the back piece that cracked is accessable. I'll need that little girl to tighten the screws as they're only 4mm.
