They are pricier, and 10cm long instead of 1 meter, but if they get to you in a better time...

They also sell new nuts, which I strongly recommend.

I just checked their site and standard shipping is 5 days, expeess is 3 days.

But then you only get one shot and if it strips out, you're back to square 1. I think going with Grainger and pulling the engine out while you're waiting may be your best bet

Great sleuthing, Al. I like Accu's product better than Grainger's. For one thing, they're stainless steel. For another, left-hand nuts, according to the customer service representative I talked with, are not available from Grainger, which is odd. I ordered a stainless rod and hex nut from Accu, shipping via FedEx. Delivery date is also 5/13, so I'm no worse off.
