Valve adjusting wrench.

Step 1
Look closely at the picture
Step 2
Notice the Hazet sticket and 17mm size
Step 3
Search Hazet stockist website for 17mm speciality wrench
Voila, so no, I can't claim the credit, only the research.

Valve adjusting wrench? I've adjusted valves, but never needed that. Now if it was a 10mm I would have said it is for installing deep sumps...

1st prize to Karmakoma !! Your box of nothing is on its way!! Well done dude....

Ron is correct! it is not beetle specific, but rather for Porsche and Mercedes Benz... it is a 1/2 inch drive 17 mm valve adjuster, with the 17mm open on one end and allows a socket wrench or extension to be added on the other....

I dont still know what I can use it for! lol!
