Another Snap On disconnected old wrench
Getting out this old wrench and upon connecting, the air hose, only hearing air noise , was enough to get this repaired?
Called Snap on and they said, no parts to repair or maintained. Found this great site and wanted to share,the impact info.
Air pressure 90-125 psi. Torque. 50-320 ft. Pounds.
Flushing fluids: ASW-16. ? IR TOOLS may make snap on parts ?
Thank you Collecting Snap On website
Would email a picture of impact but do not know procedure
Thank you

I remember the IM5, a friend of mine still has his, compared to the newer Impact Guns out there, it is weak. Try running some Marvel Mystery Oil through it, It may still work. I was able to get some CP guns to work again doing that.
