Tork Wrench?? LOL.

I think you mean Torque Wrench.

You just dial it to the lb/ft of torque you need and use it to torque whatever you are torqueing until it starts clicking.

If it is a Click style. IF it is a bentable rod style (i know that is not the right name for it), you just tighten to the rod bents to the torque you want.

if it's a click type, always return it to 0 when your done. never loosen anything with it, and don't throw it around or drop it.

At least this means he might be following some sort of direction and not just tightening the crap out of everything. Then he'll be comming on asking how to remove a broken vavlecover stud or something and you'll need to find another way to make him feel like ****.

"Tork" away man!

No no no....
It depends on what torque wrench you're using A LOT of them are different. All my buddies and mine are completely different form one another.
Post a picture man.
They all 'clikc' but some requires you to let loose for it to click and some are automatic.

No... The one i have looks like a ratchet, but doesn't click. It's got a bar attatched to the socket and as torque is applied the bar bends to points on a dial that is just above the grip...

I have the bendy rod style as well. Seems like it's less easy to throw out of whack without me noticing.
