17 Mm Crows Foot

Hi All

i have been all over the web searching for this tool.

Every one calls me back and says they have discontinued stocking this item due to the cars age 1975 450 sl.

I would like to adjust the valves in this car soon

Can any one out there help me out

Thanks
Razorman

Lightbulb How about here?

Did you try these guys? High quality and fast service from them!

By "Crows Foot" do you mean a tool that looks like just the head of an open end wrench with a square drive hole next to it that is to be driven from a ratchet and extention?

Howdy Razorman,
Look at the thread "I found the best mechanic tools made" in this forum. There are a number of the tool manufacturers mentined in that thread that should have it. Good luck in your search.

Yup, that's the V-8 valve adjustment 17mm crowsfoot (you can tell due to the relief on the bottom side).
