Jumping "shorting" the 2 terminals on a pre obd gm car?!

Yessir, homemade diagnostic tool for jumping the A and B terminals on an OBD1 port, to rear the trouble codes.
Works great on 87 to 95 chevy trucks, and is slightly less cheesy than a paper clip.

Back in the day there was a flat metal thing made like a key for jumping the ALDL, complete with hole to put it on a key chain, they may well still make them IDK. I didn't like the idea of paying for one so I made one, actually I made 4 of them, enough for each mechanic in the shop to have one. I have no idea where mine is, or even when I last saw it, but your post reminded me of it.

This is my hack valve lash adjustment tool.

I have always hated adjusting valves. It's not that I don't know how to do it, I just find it tedious, mostly because I tend to get overly anal about where the engine is at even though I know all that really matters is that the valves being adjusted are shut. This is a REALLY good hack and would give me the visual my mind would like.

Yessir, you got it.

Had an old smashed distributor and I thought that's be a useful thing to make and have around vs throwing it away.

Not exactly a tool, but a device, and its homemade. Just made it the other day, its almost done. Just gotta clean it up, and paint the frame. any guesses?
Might only be a regional thing, I dont know.
