Default can somebody identify tools in tool kit?

I'm specifically wondering which one the spark plug tool is, and what the large allen wrench used for?

btw I have an 88 coupe.

thanks, leo

and where the point of the arrow goes is where you insert your special Porsche tool super accurate torque wrench for spark plugs !!!

and if one wasn't in your kit put the allen key here

Hey Rusnak if that's your kit it is in terrific shape.

I don't have the long one with the rubber on the end but I have seen it. What is it for ? ( okay get your mind out of the gutter )

Ah, no that's not mine. I think that one must be from an SC because of the red screwdriver handle. Mine has a yellow handle. My nephews thought it would be cool to throw my wrenches into the swimming pool. I didn't find out until they were pretty well rusted, so I had to clean them up with some CLR. They look clean now, but not as shiny.

I don't carry a crescent wrench either. I got that photo from Pelican forums last year.

I think that long allen key is to remove the battery, and the rubber part is to retain the battery hold down bolt.

I think that page has to be wrong unless they omitted the pulley wrench in the RS America.

This one? The little pin fits into the fan belt pulley and prevents the alternator from turning when you loosen or tighten the alternator pulley nut. On Carreras the nut is covered with a nylon cap. For lack of a better name, I'm going to call it the fan belt tool.

Here's another pic from the pic file. It's a tool kit from the 1985 Carrera. This is what mine looks like (again not my tool kit). I'm not totally sure what the metal straw is for
