carosio Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Presuming the shaft slides through the thread (and it corresponds to one of the common plug threads), it looks like a tool for gauging piston top dead centre when screwed into a plug hole.

DeZeus Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 My best guess : Is its a sump plug, if pointy bit is magnetic for collecting Fash in sump, the other end has a hex bit possibly- stuck in end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carosio Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Doubt if it's a sump plug, it looks a bit too long and we don't know whether its magnetic. Dipstick possibly, although the hexagon doesn't really make sense for that. As I suggested earlier, it resembles a piston T.DC. tool (as in Janus's pic) the hexagon is for screwing the large thread into a 12mm or 14mm plug hole, it then slides out as the piston rises (presuming it is a slider) and they are usually graduated in mm, as in Janus's pic.

alchresearch Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 It looks very similar to a part used for a hole saw attachment for a hand drill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
