Straightening rolls / tool Explanation: I was able to find a loft of references to "destorcedores" in fishing and boating, but none in the gas and deisel context. In the Wiley Civil Engineering & Construction Dictionary, I found the following that may be of use: Straightening Machine: Máqina enderezadora Straightening rolls: Cilindros de enderezar (which sounds like it fints into your text) Straightening Tool: enderezador (which is sufficiently nebulous, that you might be able to use it in a pinch). Good luck. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-01-07 02:04:23 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- See Cecilia\'s answer below, which I think is the correct one! Good job. |

detwisters Explanation: or 'untwisters' - lacking more context it's hard to say but that's the literal translation |
