Ah yes, still got some of my pops old flathead valve tools from when he was a mechanic back in the 30's and 40's. Just suggested TCOMP because it's about the most complete archive of hard to find manuals/bulletins/brochures that's on the internet and Keith is keeping it going on voluntary...

Bruce, have you ever thought about scanning them and sending them over to Keith Hardy at The Old Car Manual Project?? He's always looking for literature like that to share with all of us. A lot of guys would love to have access to catalogs like that for their research. Denny Graham Sandwich, IL

Thanks a bunch RAF. As I said, I've had that hanging on the peg board for a couple of decades. I do once in a while work on small engines, chain saws, blowers and mowers so now I know. Seems like that was the logical application for that tool, I just was curious if my guess was correct...
