Fan Shroud '64 Spyder

[Ponyrider]

Happy Saturday!

A 9/16 wrench jumped right out of my hand and into the fan shroud!
Do I need to pull the turbo to remove the shroud and reclaim the wrench?

Thank you

You should try a magnet first, I have one on a copper wire. Don't know where I bought it though, try looking in the spark plug holes. Also look in the heater box to be sure it didn't make all the way down.

Good idea 64powerglide. Thank you.

I have never seen a wrench make it all the way to the lower shroud. It would have to be a 1/8" is cross section! Maybe 1/4" on an FC engine with no "normal" dip stick tube.

Yes, magnet. Look in all 6 plug holes (well maybe not #5 on the turbo engine) and the oil cooler cover.

Thanks Frank. The wrench slid down off the fan on the drivers side. I found a magnet on a wire, will pull the plugs tomorrow.
