    If you get a bit of product knowledge you'll be leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else who works for them.
    Good luck with it mate.

    Yeah same I go to the one at Stud Park, the chicks in there seem to know atleast where parts are and what their names are. The guys are completely useless.

    If its truly rated at 300nm then it should without a doubt. Crownwheel torque spec is about 145nm.
