Question Where to find a T-20H screwdriver?
I've checked the local Advance, AutoZone, Sears, hardware stores, and even RockAuto.com, but I can't find a Torx #20 screwdriver with a hole in the bit. T-20H, GM security, star with a hole… I've heard a couple names, but it'* for the screws that hold on such things as the MAF sensor and TPS.

If you have one, where did you find it?

You will need to by the set that goes on the end of a screwdriver handle.

I have what Saw is talking about, the set comes with a bunch of different sizes that fit into a 3/8" drive socket or a 3/8" spinner (screwdriver handle)
