My dw has a hard enough time just PUTTING air in a tire much less overhaulin the engine to do it!

Example) the other day she says her tire light was on so she pulled up to the air hose in the shop and looks at all four tires and makes an educated decision on which one was infact LOW.
she then procedes to fill the one up that to the best of her knowledge looked low.
Hmmmm ............ she texts me later and writs I quote. "Tire light came on so I filled up the low tire but the lights still on please check it tonight"
So I get her tire gauge out of the ds door pocket and start from ds front 38
Ds rear 36 Ps rear 25 and finally Ps front 68
you get the point

I would have just changed vehicles and told DH that I had a low tire

Never new what it was but I have one.

I was always under the impression that it was called a stillson (probably spelled it wrong) wrench.

This is what I always called a ford wrench...sorry I couldn't resist. Have never been a fan of the blue ovals. Just joking around though.

Ron, I always thought it was a hammer, pliers and baling wire.

Is that why they call them a "Blue" wrench?
