Does anyone know which wrench will work on right side heat exchanger? I'm guessing an offset or distributor type wrench. I need to adjust the valves!
Thanks

there is a special "C"shaped wrench that is sold to get at the nuts, in addition to the long allen wrenches.

A 13mm wrench that is bent at a 90 degree angle just past the closed end can also be used. It is much easier to use the correct tools than to try to jury-rig this task.

You don't need to remove the heat exchangers to adjust the valves.
