for sticks like this.Please help.Also when I turn the cooling access cap

Torx E wrenchs are at most auto-parts stores.

These are inverse (aka external) torx and go by E sizes instead
of T. I bought a set from SK tools for too much money, but
they fit properly.

Also when I turn the cooling access cap I accidently broken it.

I hate when that happens. If it's the bayonnet style plug that
takes 1/4 turn, I don't have any. Might still be available from
Philips or someone like partstore.com if you can find a part#.
Thanks a lot for your help
