Unless you do this on multiple cars everyday, seems like a waste of money.

If you're really worried about it, pull up with both hands and have someone else tighten it down. With the tool, I'd be worried about busting one of the fins off of the case. 1968 Plymouth Fury III 2dr FT, 383-4v, 4 speed 1972 AMC Ambassador SST wagon 360-4v, automatic 2014 Challenger R/T Classic 6-speed
