more mystery tools
I have a few more tools that I have no idea what they are for. # 3 the case is labled so I know it is a digital tachometer. But I am not sure why there is such a thing, except maybe for knowing the exact RPM from under the hood tweeking. #4 has a slide hammer effect, maybe for a seal or bearing driver.

What does the stud look like on a flat head? And what does the other side of that remover look like...very cool!" "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.

Thanks for all the identifying help everyone. Thes are some tools of my Father in laws, who recently passed away. He was an auto mechanic and deisel mechanic for 50 years or so. And had a lot of stuff I have never seen before, obviously so. (Sorry IC2 these are probably not your missing tools.)
here is the other side of the stud remover plus again the side already shown.

Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
