Here's another from the back of my special tool drawer. It's one I
used to use occasionally, although I don't have a need for it at the
moment. That's not because I sold the car, by the way, but because I
changed a component.
At the heart of the tool is a 1/8-inch hex key, which is free to turn
inside a thick-walled tube that has a knurled ring at one end. The key
is 6 inches long, and the tube is about 2 1/2 inches.
At the other end, notice the little pin at the step where the diameter of the tube changes - it's very important.
You
could use a simple hex key to do the job this tool does, but you would
likely damage the component. So, can you tell us what this tool is, and
how it is used? We'll be back tomorrow with the answer.
See more pics and get the answer on Hemmings Daily (no cheating!).
