No the answer is not obvious to them Yuriy, and if that's the only weirdest thing that's ever happened to you I'll have to have you meet some real colorful individuals some time.

There's probably a very obvious reason why she would be in college and still be stock...

Why?

all you do is put 14mm wrench on the nut/bolt and pull towards the front of the car

sometimes its hard to get an angle which will give you much travel. in that case you need somebody pull on the tensioner from the bottom by the pulley

Might be enough room to use a socket and ratchet, that might give you more throw. The water pump (I think that's what it is) below the alternator is driven off the back of the belt which is smooth, so it might be easier to try to slide the belt off that pulley instead of the alternator.

No they wont. That thing is useless. Tried to use it to un-do the nuts from my wheel spacers and it went nowhere. No substitute for air tools!

no way man, my friends dad got this one and uses in his construction business.
I saw myself him taking lug nuts in a second off his truck that were torqued to nearly 100ft-lbs


However, if something is not upto my standards, Amazons return policy is flawless

Ill do a video of what it can do once I get

I hope you are right man! The dewalt impact gun I used was corded which I assume would be much stronger than the 18v one and it never had a chance

Sweet! Just be cautious, you shouldn't use it on bolts that go into aluminum, aluminum threads can be stripped out by impact tools.
