| this impact is suppose to put out 265 ft ,lbs of torque,what a joke,i tested this on my car and with a torque wrench,,the most torque i got out of it was 135 ft lbs and that was staying on the hammer for 10 seconds ,where do these companies get there max torque rateings from because i would like to visit that test lab. the impact did get warm after doing 5 lugs and even hotter after 10 lugs,,but no grease was dripping,,i imagine if your running lag bolts with this ,,it would get real hot,,it is light weight and doesnt bust your rist up while useing it,,i have other impacts that claim to put out high torque rateings and they dont get close to it either,,so i would have to rate this a 2 1/2 stars and it would hold its weight against all the other 1/2 impacts,,but for its name TORQUEBUSTER,i would take that off of the products image,,,(SOMEONE PLEASE INVENT A REAL TORGUE ELECTRIC IMPACT)porter cable has always been a good quality tool,,so i ask the same question (WHY DID YOU BUILD THIS???) |

| I find this to be a great tool, especially if you don't have a large air compressor. It is not expected to break lug nuts. You need a 450 ft lb air impact for that. But it will break and tighten most other nuts/bolts. It is great for driving lag bolts and running a tapping attachment. I have not had a problem with overheating or dripping. |

| Love this tool, hasn't failed me once. A bit noisy, but never quits or gets hot and I abuse my tools. Just like the rest of my Porter Cable tools I plan to have it for a Lifetime |

| Do not waste your time or money on this tool... you will only return it after being thoroughly disappointed. A cheap cresent wrench will outperform this impact tool! |

| i have owned (and still own) probably 85% of the p/c line of tools and this is the first one i have truely been disapointed in. i expeienced the same problems as the previous writers, with the tool heating up to the point where it is painfully hot, and the lubrication dripping down from the tool. i returned it the second day i owned it and purchased a competing brand and couldnt be happier. p/c really dropped the ball on this one. |
