The faucet at my kitchen sink needs to be replaced. It is held to the sink by a long bolt that has a nut over a large washer. This nut is really hard to turn because the sink and water pipe block my ability to get a wrench on it. There must be a tool for this problem what is the name of the tool so I know what to look for when I go to the hardware store Saturday morning.
i’ve got one out in my pickup truck.
its called a basin wrench.
I believe it is called a ‘Basin Wrench’

Must … resist … bad … Marianas Basin Wrench pun.
Thanks. I knew there was a tool for that.
I will have to remember to consult you tube before starting maintenance projects around the house. A video of someone doing the project looks like it will be really helpful.

YouTube is a great source of DIY advice. (Watch several, to make sure they’re consistent before you find a source you trust.)
OP never mentioned a Basin!, I think he needs a Sink Wrench instead…
