Some thing that a lot of people don't know about. If you using that tool and don't want to do the math homework
turn the adaptor so that it's 90º to the wrench center line and guess what NO MATH needed.

I wondered how using this adapter might affect the torque value but I would have thought it needed to be straight/centered with the TW.

Sean, I really appreciate you bringing this up!

You might want to wait a week or driving it after the VC9.
I hear that grit keeps coming loose for a while after a flush.

You would want to trash a new cooler after all that work.

Yeah, but I am going to have to take my chances. I took some EOY vacation to get this done, so if it clogs right back up at least that is all I will have to do.

I haven't noticed any Prius(s) in the hood so not sure if there are too many greens around here, but if there are... I equally "hook them up"!!

People really shouldn't sleep in past 7am anyways. haha

FYI- The ford oem injector kits do not have the top internal injector o-ring where the nipple cups enter the top of the injectors.

They changed it back a short time ago. Once the old stock goes away you
should be able to get the top ring in the kits.

I'll look tonight and see if I can find that announcement.



Merry Christmas
