Yep got exactly the same tool in my kit with the dozen other special tools that I've made in the last 30 odd years .I actually had a mate ring me yesterday to see if I had a 14mm allen key & I told him how to make a 14mm version of yours .It must have worked coz he didn't ring back cheers Dave.

I bought an hex wrench and just cut off a couple inches from the long end to be able to use it in my air wrench. Also, the old air cooled VW's use the same size. I just can't remember where. I picked one up cheap and use it for both. I believe EMPI was the name it was packaged under.

Hallo Dutchcool, just curious, are you in the plumbing business ? few people have a "vlotter "lying on their radiator. regards sjef Sharpe eye Sjef ! Actually I'm in the business of HVAC, i work for a large (Dutch) bank, a computer center of a large bank to be exact! Cooling heating electrical NoBreak etc. I knew someone was gonna spot the junk on the radiator panel. The float is the old one, it started leaking like a old man! Changed it for a new one, and made a repair on this one, saved €35.- to spend on the SR !!!  |
