However, it seemed so wrong hitting a screw driver with a framing hammer in order to bend back the locking tabs on the cam shaft sprocket bolts.
Well, thats because it IS wrong. But, ya gotta make do with what ya got & that works. As your tool collection grows, you'll want some chisels of different thicknesses & punches & a ball pein or 2.
I didnt know not to hit hammer on hammer when I was 18. Was changing Ujoint, had no punches, no vise, just wrenches, a driveway & 2 hammers. I wound up with a piece of hammerface in my right hand, up by my thumb main knuckle. Air Force Doc said, we gotta leave it in there, its too deep & too close to major nerves to go get it. Over the years, it migrated down between th big knuckle & the one down by the thumbnail. I was working on a car with a hot engine & got it against the exhaust manifold. Didnt take much cutting to get it out after that burn healed up.
Anyway, Never smack a hammer with hammer..
