This is the same hammer I have on my boat - it solves a multitude of problems, and so far, it hasn't damaged a thing. When my rub rail was ripped out I merely tapped it back in place using that rubber mallet and it has been in place ever since. I also use the same mallet to hammer the lids closed on paint and varnish cans - works great.The mechanic used the same technique to get my engine going.
I'm thinking I might have too many tools in my toolkit.

That's EXACTLY what happened with us. I was in the cockpit and she was in the head when I heard the "Uh-Oh".You know it's bad when, after searching for years, you've finally found the boat of your dreams, and, from deep within her bowels,
you hear the surveyor say, "UH-OH!"..... [icon]--heartbreak--[/icon]
Slamming the right-side door also worked.years and years ago when I was a wee child.. my Father had MGBs. The electric fuelpump on them was under the car behind the seats. When it starts to go bad, you get either a deadblow hammer or the brass hammer they give you for taking off the wire wheels and give the firewall a quick hit.. kicks the pump right in.
