I have found what I want in every size but 3/8. they also have a open version which they are calling "flare". I don't know if the open version can take 25 ft lbs though?

David,

Ya, I knew the item I posted wasn't a crows foot but thought it would do what you needed. Anyway, hope you find what you're looking for.

Thanks Ted, appreciate it.
It wont even work with the carb off, it is to long and will hit the little runners adjacent to the bolt. If the fuel log was not there, I would have a lot more room to work...it would probably work because I could hit it from a different angle

Sorry, just trying to help. I have been to Snap-On and MAC tools guys with what I thought was impossible and they came up with something. Worth a try anyways...
