      Also the compressor is likely limiting the power of the impact. I can tell a difference in my impacts when used at home with a small compressor vs at work with a bigger compressor.

          Military, but to old for that now.

          I have to much time and money invested in this to move on. Besides I enjoy it more than I dont, so I dont see a point in moving on for me. I will, however, try to get a job as a fleet mechanic for a company or government.

              You may have to buy a USB cable and a USB to Micro USB adapter cable.

              Never used an OBDII app, but my guess is it would just be a code reader.

                  I knew a guy once that had his initials engraved/ etched on to every one of his tools, sockets, extensions, power tools.. you name it.[/quote]

                  I work with a guy like that. He etches all his tools and on the plastic boxes they come in he writes “Not for sale or trade” with a paint stick.

                          The terms are the same, at least around here they are. Ever heard of lube technicians or general service technicians?

                              Looks like KD tools. Lisle makes one similar to it

                                  If you dont like it do something else. If you have been a mechanic for 5-7 years, and you are a good mechanic, making less than $20/hr you need to find a new job. But thats just my opinion. I would never work at a dealership because of the warranty pay, plus I was turned off of them when I first applied to one. They called me for an interview and offered me $7/hr plus I had to write my own estimates and if I left something out it would come out of my pay. I told him “we just need to end this right here” and walked out.
