Once upon a time, long, long ago, in a galaxy much like our<br>
own, there was once an item known as a "c" wrench, which was<br>
a combination wrench in the shape of a "c," which would wrap<br>
around bulges like water pumps and fuel pumps and allow a<br>
mechanic to remove nuts obstructed by the item they held in<br>
place. I wonder whatever happened to them?<br>
