Only Brian and me would have some of them laying around in their shops. If you give me a couple of hours I could go find some in all the junk I have. Believe it or not they did work pretty good.

Not really but as you are kind of a newbie, I will gladly pass it on for your question as we do need a new face here. First, though look at the first post and the "rules" of the game.

Right on Dave, heck yes, lets get the next question! And make it a hard one Vexzer! A photo usually works good because it makes it harder for someone to quickly Google it. But anything is good, just ask a question and we'll fire this thread up again.

BTW, those anit-foulers are great for making a piston stop. WAY easier than gutting an old spark plug.

I recently made one out of a (new!!)spark plug - took me all of 20 minutes with 15 of them looking for my new 3/8-16 tap that I carefully put away so it wouldn't get dinged .

But ..... I digress. Again

unusal car part

That is a spark plug extender. used when the valve stem seals would allow oil to bypass and foul the spark plugs. Still have a couple of them around my garage.

Dave W You must have been sitting there drinking coffee with that post on the screen, just waiting to send it, I got it so fast.

Even my wife asked me what I was doing up, then she says oh your Brain think it's an hour later. Learn something everyday, now she thinks I have a Brain.

Brian Around here it is deer season, started yesterday, where I live ( in the middle of the woods) it is legal to shoot here, yep right in amongst the houses, so you don't really go out too much. My dogs go out with coats we made up out of orange cloth, they run out, do their duty and run in.

So looking at this screen is the best place to be, heck I have to wear orange to walk to my shop, or get the mail. I quit hunting a few years ago, I shot my share, you can shoot up to 5 deer. I get one from a kid that helps me.
