Got the throat plate off. It was really tight but bigger screws. Used the liquid wrench but nothing so far. I am letting it set for now and soak. Thanks for the info on the socket and box wrench. I will be trying those. You are right, the space is almost nonexsistant for a tool. I will look around and see what other tools I have that might be adapted to fit. I still think they used a torque wrench (new word for me that my brother taught me
) to put those screws in and tighten. BTW did you steal the ground screw driver or just inherit it?
