Is murano glass another name for moretti glass?
Murano is the island in Venice, Italy where Moretti glass is made. Due to new ownership, the glass is now called "Effetre." Effetre is a 104 COE, soda lime glass. Vetrofond is another Italian soda lime glass that is 104 COE, and that factory is run by members of the original Moretti family. Neither Effetre nor Vetrofond is associated with Lauscha glass, which is made in Germany.

What are the ways to cycle a Torque wrench?
Put the wrench to it's highest setting and "break" it or cycle it 6 times. We have a plate welded to a steel beam that has a socket welded to the plate for the use of cycling our torque wrenches. Make sure it is stored in its lowest setting. :)
Most stick welding SMAW is done with Direct Current DC. As this current passes thru the base metal it can set up a circular current on either side of the weld area creating a magnetic effect. The arc is affected by this and whips back and forth drawn by this magnetic field. Metal is blown out of the arc and splatters onto the sides of the weld and the arc is hard to control. This arc blow can be reduced by passing a separate magnetic field thru the metal nullifying the effect, or by welding in the opposite direction, or by using Alternating Current AC

How do you fix a click torque wrench?
If you have a "click" type TW that is not torquing the advertised value, often times you can disassemble, clean, lube (with a really good grease like that peanut butter looking stuff) and finally adjust it back into specs. Of course, to adjust it you would need the test equipment to do it so this is usually done at a calibration lab. Whatever you do, DO NOT squirt oil inside the torque wrench hoping that will keep it accurate. When light machine oil and grease combine, it produces a varnish that builds up inside the TW changing the size of many internal parts by the build up of varnish thereby making the TW inaccurate and non linear. When that happens, the only solution is to completely disassemble it, clean, lube and usually some light to moderate sanding is required on key parts but you gotta know what to sand and what not to sand.
Most "click" type TW are micrometer adjust (twist the handle to select the desired torque) have a "pawl" in the internal guts that is really the heart of the TW accuracy. A "pawl" looks like a rectangular cube of very hard metal that looks like 4 of the sides are the same measurement. That is almost never true. 2 of the sides will be slightly shorter than the others but you cannot see the difference without measuring it with a micrometer. You don't sand the "pawl" but you usually have to sand what the "pawl" sits in between. If done correctly, this works amazingly well to bring a TW that was inaccurate and non linear back into specs with plenty of room to breathe.
Basically, if your worried your TW is not torquing correctly, send it off for repair/calibration. Snap-on Inc's lab will do it for around $25-$35. Also, do your self a favor, don't buy a TW based on which one is cheapest. You get what you pay for. I won't say which ones I don't like (and its a long list) but I will say the really good ones are SO, CDI and Blue point. And in case your wondering, yes, I work on TW's for a living. There's a lot of technique and practice to get good at fixing TW's and most days I still learn something new I haven't seen before. Fixing a TW is not something I would suggest to anyone who hasn't done it for a long time and if you have been doing this for a long time, you wouldn't need my input.

What does it mean when they wrench light is on in your 2002 courgar?
The wrench light comes on every 3000 miles and just means that you should have regularly scheduled maintenance done. Nothing is wrong with your car. Check your owners manual on how to turn it off. I believe you press "select" and "units" and hold down for a couple of seconds.
It means it is time to change the oil and you do reset the light by holding the select and unit buttons for 5 to 10 seconds.......
