I need some help with the second and fourth items this week:Rob

2665: What the U shaped prongs bolt to appears to be a vehicle flywheel. The central bolt holes and dowels are clearly similar to crankshaft end fittings and I think I can see starter motor ring gear teeth at the left of the picture. However other than that I'm stumped. All I can think is it's designed to take up backlash between clutch and engine as some sort of cushioning device rather like modern dual mass flywheels.2668: This would join two separate wires or cables. Maybe a fence tensioner or cable extender of some sort.2670: Some kind of sump plug spanner cum penknive. Maybe vehicle oil pan sumps or given the knife a firefighter's tool if any water valves are operated by square plugs of that type.

What is it? Set 459

That reminds me of some great fun we had as kids. Allowing one to enter a room and then pulling the door knot attached to the square shaft out from the other side. I can still hear the tears... lol
