Sometimes the nut flats or points get too close to the pump body to get a wrench to fit. Not a big deal, just in the past have been able to make all kinds of special tools for these cars. So when I make a tool for doing this particular job seeing if someone has a picture of the actual tool. Also too, the wrench handle needs to clear the coils. I have made a tool with the handle bent to clear between the bottom of the coils and the top of the lubrication inlet on the pump body. Just not been able to get the legs of the tool thin enough and strong enough to clear between the nut flats and the pump body. Which on occasion will be under 1/8 inch. Yes there is a bit of coolant there, this is why I am playing around with this. Thanks
