i really like torque wrenches they give me a feeling that everything is within spec and is an insurance that it wont leak

So let's just say, in a completely hypothetical situation... if you happend to break a bolt but it's at the bottom, not the top... after you were done crying, how would you get the tiny little piece of bolt out?

Well, that's exactly what I did. My mechanic took a metal punch I believe it's called and took the point and kept tapping it counter clockwise til the bolt came out, because theres no pressure on it anymore.
