Best Tool You'll ever own for working on these old cars

I couldn't remember if I put a star type nut on the fan clutch of my 2.6 190e or not. Question answered. This tool is so useful in so many ways.

A tool so good it's top secret!

Can you elaborate a little bit? What are we looking at in the attached photo?

Camera. It has a flexible shaft and light on the end. An obvious use for it would be to watch for the torque converter drain plug while you are turning the crankshaft.

I actually got it so I could drill a small hole in my drywall and look at a pipe inside the wall. But the automotive applications are unlimited. Like it!

I'm sure there are better ones. This one has survived.

I got this a few years ago. Does look like there are inexpensive ones now that plug into phones.

Thought of another use. Removing power seats from a junkyard where they don't allow jump boxes.
