Hello, does anyone know if Caterpillar makes a special socket to fit the injector retaining nuts on the combustion chambers on a 955C traxcavator, engine model #12A 781? I think the year is betweeen 1955 and 1959. The retaining nut on this machine is circular, not hex and it has serated or knurled edges. A traditional socket doesn't fit it. We've tried just about everything, but can't get the retainer out so we can remove the combustion chambers to replace the o-rings and washers. We have the tool to remove the combustion chamber itself, but can't get the circular nut off to get that far. Thanks for your help!
