One
of the biggest mistakes we see from people new to repairs is stripped screws.
The main reason for this is not having the right size tool for the job, especially
when it comes to Phillips/+ style fasteners. Most Phillips drivers will have a
PH with a number after it indicating the size, however some have nothing at all.
Not only will the right size not strip your fastener, it will be much easier to
unscrew. The proper size should have almost not play when you wiggle it in either
direction. You can pick up a decent Phillips driver set under $15 at your local
hardware. Trust us; this will be the best $15 you ever spent if you do your own
repairs. If you have any questions post them or check out our website http://fullthrottlerepairs.com/.
