Not sure why the socket wouldn't fit in there, but you might need to
take out the two screws that hold the tank to the bracket and tilt it a

I'll try to dig out those covers...thanks for reminding me. No way for
ATF to be around the heads...unless the PS pump is leaking? Or a PS
hose? Hope you don't end up having to rebuild the whole thing before long!
