Old timer told me I was 'yanking the head' wrong
Guy with 30 years at Delta watched me torque a cylinder on a Lycoming and said I was pulling the wrench at an angle. He showed me to line up my shoulder with the bolt and pull straight. Torque readings are way more consistent now. Anyone else get a basic wrenching habit corrected way later than they should have?

That head torque trick is gold, wish someone told me sooner.

Right? I learned that one the hard way after snapping a bolt clean off. Took me hours to drill it out.
