Subj: Snap-On Tools
Nope you don't have to be a "shop/business" to
buy Snap-On tools, just have money. Just find a
Snap-On truck and knock on the door, they will be
glad to sell you what you need. Oh by the way,
here are the part numbers for the tri-square bits.
6mm FTSME6E $19.65
8mm FTSME8E $19.65
10mm FTSME10E $22.80
8mm long FTSME8LE $21.85
Prices may have changed, based on April 02 price
list.
Happy wrenching
Bill

A torx WILL work, and whoever had the bright idea of putting 12 points in a head of a bolt was a freakin idiot. "Uh, lets see how much we can cut out of this sucker so that it will be easier to strip out!"
Yes, it will work. I used a torx on my flywheel bolts and it worked fine. I tried to start useing the cheesehead that i had but it was a little worn and i didn't want to strip it.
