I always thought Leia's tool looked cool, though it doesn't match the parts in the bin, and it has a coil cord!

I am trying to identify Leias and/ or Hans "welder" for years, but the only thing positively identified is part of it being a Kobold flash
I think OW72 is ref the handle as the Flash.
Okay I have a few questions
Those Gauges - does anyone know what they look like inside the tips? How do the exhaust valves stick in there? I'm assuming those red and green things are nuts that thread onto a bolt...
Also, are all volvo exhaust valves the same size? I was thinking of getting a cheaper one and doing a quick off prop!
the valves all being the same is a long shot. if you could find out what head they came from then maybe. my guess who be what ever volvo panels they used for HIC, they might have grabbed the valves out of that engine. if that volvo only came with 1 engine size then most likely all the valves are the same. but if they came with more then 1 engine option... its going to be a tuffy.
i would try a diesel engine valve first, being over seas diesels are far more popular then gas jobs

tom as far as attaching the valve to the tool, i wouldn't be surprised if this silver shaft the colors cubes sit on is hollow. if not, i would find a matching outside diameter hollow rod and swap it over
