T210 blade removal

[Cusser]

On the cylinder heads of my two old VWs, I use nuts 8mm x 1.25mm that utilize an 11mm wrench. Simpler is to grind a socket or wrench narrower; use a bench grinder and eye protection.

Purchase a nut-cutter from amazon.It will cut off nuts without damaging the threads.Saves a lot of time and trouble on otherwise stuck or cold welded nuts.About $8 or so.Worth it if you do much mechanical work on anything.There will always be one that is stubborn.

I'm reading post that are tightening 12 mm nuts like we did on a TLA Clark with 2-5/16" con rod nuts .
