I found the tool up in Ohio, had to be shipped to the distributor, who would get it to me a day or two later, at great cost. Bobcat had some for their use, and were not about to lend them to me. Ford big truck breaks, and possibly some high pressure lines on Power stroke engines, require a similar tool. One is available at most auto parts stores. They look flemsey compaired to the one you recomended, but it worked great. If you are a pro, working on these machines, I would recommend the tool you recommended, but for those of us who do this every several years, this worked great. Sadly the cooler was not repairable. It had rusted through. Was not aware that the cooler has to be removed, as part of regular maintenance, cleaned, and the area between the cooler and the radiator also needs to be cleaned, or vaccumed. Bobcat, and Fedex over night are pretty proud of their parts and serrvices, and this repair may have been avoided or put off with some regular cleaning. Hope this helps someone else. Thanks again for your help. montreat builder</p></blockquote><p></p>
