this same combination is also exactly what you need for a TR6

Listers,

Like someone else on this list, I recollected that reaching that =
rearward nut on the TR3 fuel pump was something I'd been doing for a =
long time w/o any problem. So, after raising the bonnet to attach the =
charger ( I had forgotten to disconnect the battery last October), I =
decided to see if my method of reaching that nut was a simple as I =
remembered it to be. It was. Using a Craftsman 1/4" drive ratchet with a =
3" extension and the 1/2" socket, I was able to loosen that nut and =
retighten it, all in less than 30 seconds. My car is a '60 TR3 with all =
the parts in place. And that's why I carry this wrench and fittings =
along with a replacement pump as part of my long trip spares.
