The standard click style wrenches appear to run 4% to 5% accuracy. There is a Snap-On with better accuracy, but it is more than $250.00. And my $250.00 Snap-On torque wrench is part of the problem with my car today. The calibration was WAYYYYYY off. I did not drop it or abuse it after the calibration was checked and given a green light. In case you were wondering, the 60 Ft-lb on my click style read as 38 Ft-lb on my old bar style wrench. But my old bar style wrench is simply impossible to get into small places effectively.
