This may help. I made the top one and was given the botom factory one. Hope it helps.. They need to be ground on both ends too so look closely at this in the video.

Here is a picture of the "official" wrench. The problem is that it wears too quickly. A number of people here have bent and ground their own, and have a better, longer lasting wrench. I have a diagram somewhere here which some body posted. I'll see whether I can find that too. But for right now, the picture, or maybe a bit later.

The next job will be finding the directions to make one, but that will come after dinner.

I'm definitely not saying to do this, but…
I haven't come across a engine that has that nut. Not even the stud. Lol

This is what I use.

I ground the box end with a slight taper and so it JUST fits past the stud and then over the nut, this works ok I'll eventually find a nice LONG combination wrench which I can bend it and grind it accordingly.

Found it. A member here did this and was nice enough to share the pictures with us all. I can't remember who to thank.

Anyway, here is a custom bent and ground wrench

all I ever use. well in 9/16th but you get the point

Sears has a u shaped 9/16 and 5/8 boxed end type wrench. Grind the 9/16 end flatter for the pump and take a small section out of the 5/8's end to make a line wrench for the injector lines....

I always just used the open end of a regular box end wrench. A bit tedious but not bad.

 

[jaluhn83]

Took a regular combo wrench and bent the end about 30* - had to grind it down a bit too.

I would strongly advise not to remove that nut as someone seems to be suggesting - doesn't seem like it'd do much, but with something as precise and high stress as an injection pump it's important to have a symmetric support - having only the 2 bolts would cause the pump housing to twist to a small degree.....

Removing one of the 3 nuts will reduce your clamping power by 33%. I suppose its possible to run without it but its not what I will do.

mines got all 3 nuts and studs. i just grinded on a coupe of 9/16 wrenches and swap them as needed
