When it says don't overtighten something, like the oil filter cap for instance, do yourself a favor and don't overtighten it.

Yes, against our best male instincts, the instructions should be read.

Of course, if you have a cot in the garage, maybe you can get away with the oily sandal prints on the carpet.

Advice? Don't wear sandals!
1. Sissy looks
2. Scorpion/Cactus issues
3. Drop an engine part on your sandaled tootsies and you will know why God invented cowboy boots!

Well, best get back to work... I have a set of CV34s on the bench and I have got to repair all the pieces I broke getting them apart and try to sand out some of the BIG UGLY gouges! bwhahahaha

Of course you aren't speaking form experince are you;)

By the way, ALWAYS wipe your feet multiple times and or remove shoes ect prior to walking into the wardens domain.

No sandals here. Bare foot ( hate shoes ) or tennis shoes , unless I'm working on something heavy.
