Never mind.....

Managed to get the box end of the stubby on. Thanks... Just dont like torquing from the bolt side


Hi all...

What tool did you use to get a good grip on the bottom engine mount nut thats by the dipstick on #3 cylinder of an IO-360? A stubby 5/8 socket doesnt fit..the casting is in the way, a stubby 5/8 barely gets onto the flats.

The nut is on, and torqued, but not to the spec value...and I need to take it off again to remove a washer so the cotter pin will fit properly. Im not too keen on torquing it with the stubby barely contacting the flats.

Any hints?

Thanks in advance.
