Title: Tool kit wrench sizes
Post by: gugel on October 21, 2007, 16:15:09
What are the sizes of the open end wrenches in a Pagoda toolkit?  Are there four wrenches, of sizes (in mm) 9/10, 11/14, 14/17, and 17/19?

That's what I have and I think my kit is complete.

I'm surprised that there is not a 13mm wrench in there.

Slightly off the thread (what's new...)

Do most of you that have a toolkit (I don't), also carry other tools? I basically try and carry every wrench size I have ever used... thinking I might need it again. For example, besides the 10, 12, 13, 14 and 17... I have that little 7mm for checking the CSV, a 27mm for turning the crank to set points, and a 6mm hex for distributor, etc.

I don't keep my toolkit in the car, it's safely tucked away in my garage - I carry a 21st century Craftsman metric wrench set instead!

IMHO the old Merc's had M8 bolts with 12 mm heads. Later these bolts received 13 mm hex. Shouldn't there also be an 8 mm open end wrench? I have an old set made by Dowidat

Not sure if mine is original to the 113 or not (it's definitely MB), but I've got 8/10, 11/13, 14/17, 17/19.
