Well, I didn't see anyone use my tool. I went to sears and bought a 17mm hex wrench. Probably cost $6. I then took my dremmel with a cut off bit on it and cut off part of the wrench and then I used my newly made tool with a box wrench or a socket and it worked great. Unfortunately, all my tools got stolen from my van a while ago (stupid of me to leave then in there) and I haven't had time to make another one of these tranny plug tools. blake St Louis On Thu, 20 Feb 2003, John Rodgers wrote: > Thanks everybody.
