My Chicago Pneumatic impact wrench was completely defeated by auto lug nuts.
It would make all the right noises, but even when it was turned up
'all the way', it couldn't break loose the least of them.

I would sigh heavily and break the nuts loose with a moderate sized
breaker bar.

Finally tossed the thing.

YMMV

Hey Winston,

Wish you had tossed it my way. They are good tools. Must have been a
problem with it.

You are probably right, Brian.
It wasn't priced like a quality tool, so it probably was a 'knockoff'.

Lesson learned.
