Default Cylinder Wrenches for 0-320A Narrow Deck

Hi, I'm looking for the 12 point serrated drivers used on the cylinder nuts
of an 0-320A Narrow Deck. I checked out the Autmotive Parts shops in my
local town but they only had them available in metric sizes, not the 1/2 "
and 3/8 " (I Think) needed. I have a set of Lycoming cylinder wrenches for
convensional nuts, as used on my 0-290d, and wanted to adapt them. Any
Ideas out there?? Dave.

Actually a 6 pointed allen wrench will work. They make a cylinder base
wrench that has a 6 point hex on the end for these internal wrenching nuts.
Try your local EAA chapter tool library or an older A&P as they were very
popular in the 50s.
