I'm stuck - just removed main fuel pump and have a question 200 1983

posted by  someone claiming to be 81242B21FCA on  Fri Jan 2 18:11 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Why BOSCH did this is a mystery. The Volvo manual says to grind the jaws of an open end wrench to about half its thickness (my estimate) and also the outer edges to make the fingers narrower. Seems to me I found a tool (vice grips?) with jaws that would reach around one post from the side instead of going between them. Whatever you do remember you are working on a system that generates about 70 psi of fuel pressure. Any leaks could be big trouble.
