Yup... in these parts we call that the "Victor Wrench."   ^_^

Or the "Hot Wrench" ;)

"Blue-tipped wrench" is the term I learned.

While blowing leaves with my Stihl backpack blower, I stepped onto a small round limb, slipped and fell back onto the blower.  A rock caused the gas tank to crack in a small place, and even after using adhesive to repair, it still would leak just very slightly.   I merely put a Kotex pad under the tank and continued using the blower for two more years.  Would just change the pad once it got a little soiled.   The drip was so minute, I wasn't worried about fire as it was all on the very bottom.

Ellie got her Camaro home back in the 70's when the fan belt left the vehicle. She tied her panty hose around the crank and water pump pulley. Made it the 25 miles home! You'd be hard pressed to do that with today's cars.

 

A woman after my own heart; you're a fortunate fellow.
