Tools

I'd suggest going up to 19mm for the open/box end wrenches. You'll need a 17mm to undo the fill bolt on the 4cyl manual tranny.

I'd pick up a freind as well always good to have one...sometimes there the best tool ever. The one tool that I can't live with out is wrench's of course...but number one tool that I think is a real time saver is an air compressor with a metric and standered(sp) set to go on that...come in handy and saves a lot of time.

very true two heads is always better than one does anyone know about how much it costs to put together a basic air tool setup?

My friend did it for under $500 for EVERYTHING. I was impressed.

And it was a damn nice setup too!

I can tell you that there not cheap expect to pay like 300 bucks or so.

Head over to your local sears store and check out what they have. I just got a news letter from them today w/ all their sales on tool sets, etc.

BTW, I changed my tranny fluid from nasty CarQuest to Honda. Soo much better!

If you don't have a 17mm wrench, you couldn't do it and enjoy the lovely shifts
