Hi All, So, it's been a while since I've owned a VW (only T2 before now). Since the breakdown I've decided to make sure I'm prepared, tool-wise, so here's what I've got. I'd appreciate any pointers on things I'm missing or things I'm carrying that don't make sense Tools: Socket Wrenches: (1) 1/2" drive, (2) 3/8" drive Sockets: 6mm-21mm 3/8" drive Deep Sockets (3/8" drive): 9mm-19mm, 21mm Large Sockets (1/2" drive): 27mm, 28mm, 30mm, 32mm, 36mm Torque Wrench (1/2" drive) Cheater Bar (1/2" drive) Open Ended Wrenches: 6mm-19mm File Set Magnetic Pullers: (2) with Mirrors Adapters: several 3/8" and 1/2" adapters and extenders Allen Wrenches: Up to 17mm Small ball peen hammer hacksaw mallet metal clippers Dwell/Tach tester pocket multi-meter Inductive timing light battery charger 120v I have everything fitted into ziplock bags. It's amazing what you can fit into a toolbox when everything is nicely organized. We'll see how long that lasts ;-) Cheers, Harry |
