Silly Torque Wrench Question & fuel draining.
Q1: I ordered my parts and book from Pelican for the oil change/filter and replacing the fuel filter. I don't work on cars a lot but have worked on my old motorcycle in the past.
I do not own a Torque Wrench, yet. Tightening the 2 bolts for the oil change they have a specific torque setting to tighten to. Do I have to buy an expensive one or can I run down to Sears and buy a $29.95 + tax one that will work just as well and some what accurate?
Q2: Before I warm the car up to drain the oil I want to replace the gas that has been in there for about 3 years now. I have a small pump that attaches to a drill can I just feed a tube into the gas tank and pump out the fuel? If so how long of a tube should I use? Also how many gallons do you think is in the 87' 911 Turbo if the gas gauge reads 1/2 a tank? To give me an idea of how much storage I will need for that much gas.
Thanks!
