Worked like a charm. High quality and recommended for that one nut that needs this.

I dont know how we would have gotten the vacuum pump replaced without this wrench. Even though it is a 12 point crow foot design we still had a bit of struggle with one nut. All because of other stuff in the way, not any fault of the wrench.

Tool works as advertised. Also, much less expensive than the snap-on tool that does not work.

That lower left nut on the vacuum pump is a bear to get at. This gets the job done.

I’ve changed many vacuum pumps in my time, and this tool is a game changer. I’ve bent and welded tools together to get to that one last nut…you know the one! This wrench is all I’ll ever need for the next vacuum pump replacement.

Only disappointment is you can’t use a torque wrench with it. Only needed it for one nut on the back up alternator but nothing else works.

I spent 25 years maintaining light aircraft. While I did have to get adept at grappling with that bottom inboard mounting nut, only now that Im retired did I purchase this wrench - 25 years too late! It is a really helpful tool that should be in every tool cabinet.

If you are changing a pump GET ONE OF THESE, MANDATORY!!! It is a PITA getting the lower left nut on by hand and nearly impossible to tighten it with out this wrench.....

On Lycoming 360 (180 HP) does work but you cannot tight the lower left 7/16 nut because the tools angle it is too long and touching the engine case that eventually start leaking oil.

Used once and wrench bent. Might be bad run of metal, but it was very weak. Aircraft spruce replaced no questions asked.

It make work on some planes, but not my B model Bonanza 35.
It did fit the nut (7/16) but the Handle was too long, distance between opening for nut and first 90 bend was too great and sides of wrench too wide to turn the nut once you were on it.
After hacksawing and grinding and using a crescent wrench to turn the wrench, I removed the stubborn top left nut.
For me, waste of time and money.

Looks to be good quality but too long for my use. Will not fit between the firewall and the vac pump on an American Champion Aircraft Super Decathlon. 8KCAB.
