I'm looking for the tool that is used to loosen the nut on the outside of the distributor. After removing the nut that holds the lead coming from the coil there is a nut that looks like this () but round and it has 2 slots. I have a tiny pair of needle nose pliers that I can get in the grooves and loosen but now I can get it to screw back in. I'm unable to hold the stud and push in on the nut. Is there a screwdriver type tool made for this application?
