For those of you who have not used an impact driverl, it is totally
manual (no air compressor required).

You place it on the screw and strike the end with a hammer. It
simultaneously keeps the screwdriver head securely seated in the screw,
while also providing the twisting force to loosen it. There is much
less chance of stripping out the screw head due to the seating force
that is equally applied.

They are a 'must have' tool for old motorcycles, and mine has earned its
weight in gold over the years. Well worth the small expenditure!

You might find them a bit less on eBay too.
