When working on cars do you regularly break delicate plastic parts and/or over use pry bars or hammers?

No, I've never broken anything and I don't own a hammer or pry bar. Why would I need to?

I have broken things but only occasionally

I break things quite often but always manage to sort it with a 'temporary fix'

I'm an absolute animal and am claiming the title of 'most ham-fisted OOFer'

You will find this on occasion young bear and Fords are one of the worst, they don't 'age' well.....for god sake don't touch any engine looms on them lol

But this time of year does not help as plastics are more brittle
