This is a tool to help you drain the coolant from a Volvo Penta marine diesel engine. I designed it for my D1-30A engine.
The D1-30 has two coolant nipples or draincocks which must be opened to drain the coolant. One of mine, the one next to the fuel filter, was quite stuck and very difficult to reach. It was impossible to get a tool onto it. So I made this simple socket to fit over the drain nipple and turn it with the leverage of a set of pliers.
It did not work very well printed in PETG, but printed in ASA it was plenty stiff and strong.
For reference, the Volvo Penta drain nipple is this part number 3583822: https://www.volvopenta.com/shop/0/parts/3583822
