...and I nearly revealed my youth and lack of knowledge of old English
cars by asking "what's a knock-off hub hammer?"
So why didn't knock off nuts have flats for a wrench to go on them? Is
the air wrench a more modern invention than I realize? Surely it's not
faster to spin a nut on by hand and finish with a hammer than to run it
on with an air gun. When the air gun isn't available (like for roadside
repairs) a long enough lever can do it, right?

the fuel shutoff valve (and Scarff Isuzu's helpful parts guy)

MG or other SU
equipped car when it died, tap the pump with the knock-off hub hammer,
have the
engine come to life, and drive off. :-) Ah, the "good old days".
