Yup, we know first hand.......don't hold the ratchet at the end of the handle when tightening, hold it close to the head so you can't get that much torque on the ratchet.

So I swapped it and now my car idles at 2500. The acceleration is really touchy too. I think something got messed up with it when I was doing it. Could I have put the spark wires on backwards? Is that even possible?
