Default Thanks.. Maybe tonight I'll be able to sleep!

Low cost, But "Bit is made from shock resisting S2 tool steel (not for use with impact drivers)"

I was thinking my Sears impact driver might work.. Maybe as a last resort?

What do you think of this Sears 5mm?

The Sears store is only about 3 miles from here. Quick Easy drive..
But the Home Depot stores require a little road trip.. Route 128 traffic..
Both of my local HD stores say they have 2 in stock..
Sometimes, that means they have none in stock..

Please explain a "quick hit on the ratchet". Do you mean a quick yank on the handle, like when steady pressure doesn't get the oil pan plug out?
But, a very quick yank on the handle works wonders?
