Ditto to Black in Black

I've seen too many threads stripped and bolts broken just because someone had to turn a bolt or nut to make sure it's tight. If a fastener doesn't turn when the specified torque is reached, for heaven's sake don't turn it at all. Then you won't make the mistake again.

Good luck on the fix, HeliCoil, that is.
