 .     Okay, I've been searching high and low for a torque wrench with a 1/4" drive that reads in inch/lbs so I can check/adjust valve clearance.  I've had zero success with this   Any shot that a person could use a 3/8" drive torque wrench and get 3/8 drive sockets?  Would there be room to work still?  Am I gonna be able to even find the metric sockets I need in 3/8 drive?  Am I gonna need a prescription for lithium soon?     going nuts....

I have several torque wrenches at work, from 1/4" to 3/4" drive and the 3/8" with the small head by far is the most versatile and will fit anywhere a 1/4" torque wrench will work. I`ve never had a problem with the 3/8" on valves.   Skip
