Re: oil pressure relief valve

Post by philthehill »

Recently re-visited this thread and decided to revise the design of the oil pressure relief valve socket. Now 3/8" drive and made from a one piece socket with a reduced diameter upper section. It allows me to remove the oil pressure relief valve cover without removing one or more of the starter motor bolts.
Below: old socket on the left revised socket on the right.

Works even better with a wobble end socket extension.
