A solution thread :) New tool
Apologies to all if breaking protocol here; but I've used this several times since I've bought it and it's becoming more and more amazing every time and felt compelled to share something that I hope will save more knuckles.
It's available at Advance Auto Parts; in their tool aisle ...used for...wait for it..wait for it...adjusting carburetors. Black part of the shaft is very flexible.
In the few days I've used it to get at those lovely screws holding the climate control solenoid cover, that awesome screw on the headlight cover that points directly back down towards the hood/finish (how many of you...raise your hands...I include myself here).
Coming up: mix settings (86.0 here) on MAF, idle set screw on throttle body.
$12.99....becoming worth more and more every single time I use it; didn't have to special order it....it was sitting right on the shelf.
Overall length: 15.5"
Flex shaft length: 10"
Handle/grip to beginning of flex shaft: 4.5"
Thought to share something that's a big help and readily available to us that have Advance Auto Parts stores nearby
