46mm crow's foot wrench; you can't adjust the cam timing without it...
Synchrometer - you can't synchronise the carburetors without it the factory toolkit zero-offset 18mm box-end is the best tool for changing the fan belt. V-E-R-Y long 8mm Allen for removing the heat exchanged barrel nuts. weird-shape 13mm offset wrench for removing the other heat exchanger nuts. MFI requires its own special set of very long, skinny tools. the proper (big) pair of wrenches to disconnect the side oil line is nice but i've done it by other means. 8mm triple-square socket for R&R CV bolts. the special Turbo tie rod tool is quite handy for that job. everything else i can think of is standard well-equipped metric toolbox stuff, like the 30mm socket you need to get the rear exle nuts off... |
