I'm just guessing, but it looks like the allen head tool used to hold the back side of the clutch/pressure plate bolts on a KTM engine when making clutch adjustments, but I'm not sure how that would come into play on a steel tanker. Mike

Could be a Bar B Que tool, or a Dwell adjusting tool for GMC car engines of yore

The old guy has a sense of humor! It could be used to check for broken frames on the six days down by the lower engine mount. kinda stick it in there and pry. Bicycle frames break ya know!(except Schwinn)

sorry for the delay. been busy with Class and havent been on. This is a Original Penton allen wrench to hold the back side of the fasteners on the clutch while making adjustments. Mike was right. Take it easy everyone.
