BAGHDAD, March 23 (Reuters) - Iraq wants to revamp its battered economy and boost non-oil revenue by offering production-sharing deals with state-run companies to foreign investors, a deputy industry minister said.
Iraq is trying to shake off the legacy of years of violence, sanctions and economic decline by opening up its financial and industrial sectors and luring foreign investment and expertise to help it rebuild.

Question : My JD 1984 318 Onan oil drain cock is on the right side, it has an unusal drain sock thhas two ends sticking out of a bolt. Is there a special wrench I need to get to get at the oil drain cock? Thank You..

Yes, this is pretty standard on a lot of Onan engines.
No special tool is required – but I have seen them so tight that the ‘pins’ break off, and you must use vise grips to get the bolt loose.
The pins are nothing more than handles to make it supposedly ‘easier’ to open the drain cock.
One thing I have used is a standard open end wrench, the same size as the ‘bolt’ part. Put the wrench on straight from the end, so each side of the wrench is catching on the pins, as close to the bolt as possible. Use another wrench or pliers to turn the wrench.
Make sure you are turning it counterclockwise.
