Fuel Pump Plug Tool
Trying to install Fuel Pump on new 454 crate motor.
I can not remove the Fuel Pump Plug (used to insert Push Rod).
It is has a recessed SQUARE socket which appears to be 5/16"
I tried a 1/4 and 3/8 rachet extention; but it appears to be in between.
Went to 2 auto part stores no luck.
Any ideas? where I can get a tool?
If I get desparate I may try grinding down a 1/2 to 3/8 drive adapter

Depending on how much of the plug is showing outside the block you could try vice grips. I have also pulled some out using a screwdriver and a hammer.
