Default vise grip vs the wrench..

didn't have an o2 sensor tool so i had to put this on before i could drive it...

30lbs of pressure i believe is the torque specifications. didn't read it until afterwards lol.

now, i was under the car w/ 2 hands and stripped the o2 nut a bit.

think i over torqued it or under? your thoughts?

Hard to undertorque something and strip it. You probably just did it at an awkward angle and messed up the nut a bit. Nothing to worry about: torque specs on the O2 sensor aren't going to change anything.

And as for this:

OR you have the best of both worlds (she's ugly and you're rich). Don't flatter yourself; your not a pimp.</TD></TR></TABLE>

the last "your" should be "you're" and the statement is ridiculous anyway. Do you think Asian girls are any harder to date/expletive/con than any other race of girls? Let me tell you something, son: there are several universal characteristics of human beauty. It doesn't matter if you're white or black or Asian or Hispanic, good looking is good looking.

It's not any more of a challenge - or a success - to bag a hot Asian girl than it is to bag a hot white or black or Hispanic chick. Period.
