spark plug wrench size
 
OK Here is the newbie 911 owner silly question of the day.
What size socket is used to pull the plugs on a 72 2.4 liter?

Long story but my sockets are elsewhere and I need to borrow one from a friend....

THanks

Maze,

If your factory tool kit is somewhat complete, you may have a spark plug wrench already that is custom tuned to be used in your car.

Some pictures of them are here: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=225889&highlight=factor y+spark+plug+wrench

Tab and Harry,
Thank you both very much for your kind replies to my newbie question.
Im impressed by the many solutions offered for plug tools.
I like the idea of a remover with a magnet.

Just curious, in recent history, has there been another other size except 13/16 and 5/8 for plugs?

3/4 inch for lawn mowers and chain saws

Yes, I have one each of those plus a gas weed-whacker and edger.

Guess I was think automobiles being as we aren't on the "How I maimed myself at home" forum. :D
