I'm looking to buy a metric tap & die set. What are the most common/important threads to have with respect to a Vanagon? From what I've found in the archives 14x1.5 (shift knob, wheel lugs, oil drain plug) and 10x1.5 ('engine bolts') are good ones to have. Does ETKA specify fasteners? Unfortunately, it seems most tie & die sets have one or the other, not both. Any recommendations?
