Heater Hose Torx Size?
Is it some kind of weird T35 size or something? God knows I have looked everywhere for one that fits. T30 too lose, T40 too big. Nobody has a T35.

It is a T30 torx bit,just make sure you press down on the ratchet when you break it loose..

Maybe my bit is worn, because I tried a few times and any real torque and it would skip a tooth.I'll run out and buy a fresh one and try again.

It does fit kinda loose,but with some pressure the T30 will work.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot tomorrow. Had to come inside and take a shower before I went gangsta on the A/C-PS bracket.

Rational people despise torx fasteners and the engineers that design and specify them!!!
Sorry, but the devil made me post this!!
