928 thread, nut, and bolt sizes?
I've been doing some tool shopping, and I'm thinking a good way to keep costs down since there is so much to buy is to target just the sizes needed for the 928 instead of sets where 80% is never used. I'll have a full set of generic quality basic tools, but maybe 10 variations on higher quality 10mm sockets, and 6mm hex drivers. I'd also like to get thread chasers in as good of quality as I can, and that means buying singles of just what I need.
I'd like to make a list of the sizes used in the 928, nuts, bolts, and thread and pitch. I will edit this first post to keep it organized as people reply, sorry I know so few myself. Wrench and driver sizes. 6mm hex - used all over. 10mm - used all over. 13mm - most of the ones bigger than 10mm. 19mm - lug nuts 27mm - crankshaft pulley. 13/16" - Spark plugs. 8mm 12 pt - CV joints. 12mm 12 pt - flywheel. Thread sizes and pitch. 14x1.50 - lug nuts

I needed 8mm hex to get the protective shield of under the radiator. Most came off with a standard tool, needed an extended 'ratchet' to get 2 out.
Other than that air-pump went in/out with a 13mm spanner, used a 10mm ratchet to get the radiator fan housing off. I think I needed a 17mm for the battery cable.
