Damn, I never really thought about messing up the torque wrench, well I guess I'll have to have it checked out before I use it again.

I've never used an impact wrench. Are you saying that an impact wrench would have removed the bolt without any other special tools or removing the starter? (If yes, then - double damn).

Yea, that was 200 to break it loose. I torqued it to 130 (assuming that the wrench was still good) when I put it back on.

I suppose that the first thing I should have done was to sign-up here and asked the proper way to remove the bolt... Oh well, live and learn...
