Tool #A.5.0232 is a 55 mm open end wrench. Actually it is a crows foot to
be used with a socket.
It will fit all Alfa spider VVT camshafts from 1980
to 1994. A friend made my 55mm wrench years ago on a mill from an old truck
spring. If you have a spider with a VVT you need this tool! Or you do if you
want to fine tune your cam timing.

I have encountered some early VVT camshafts that do
not have a 55 mm nut. They have "knobs" all around the locking ring. I have
used a BFH (Big Freeking Hammer) and a punch on them.

I bought their tools for adjusting
the timing of the Alfa Twin Cam VVT camshaft.

If any digester would like to borrow them & is willing to pay
the postage I'd be willing to loan them.
