On one side, the one that was squeeling from the tin warning piece, the tool barely fit in. It took me 5 minutes of contorting, trying different cube side combinations to get it started to turn. Once the block fit in it went easy, and the other side went w/o a problem.

Thank you

Cool. If you are planning to do any other work on your car, take that Chiltons manual back and cough up a bit more for a Helm's factory service manual. It's a must have for a DIY'er. www.helminc.com You can get certain manuals on CD on ebay sometimes, but I like the paper copy, a lot easier.
