socket sizes

[FreestyleFreak]

Whats the most common sockets sizes you use working on a boat?
And whats the most common size of open face wrenches you use?

8, 10, 12, 13, 14mm same with socket and wrenches... small flexable tools are very handy

I was also going to say metric.

If you're using a 13 you're working on a sea-doo.

I coulda sworn I used a 13 on my 550.

It's been a few weeks, so don't quote me on that.

 

[FyrHazard]

Could be using 13 if you've replaced any of the bolts with non-OEM ones too

9/16 for the Lord mount bolts/nuts on my pipe.
Actually I replaced most of the bolts on my motor with Socket Cap Screws.
Stator cover/intake so I have a full set of allen wrenches.

On some SJ's I have encountered the ebox mounting nuts are 13mm and some are 12mm... Haven't found a pattern either. Seen both sizes on RN and SN.

 

[surferdude345]

sea doo uses a lot of odd sizes but almost everything else is just 8,10,12,14 and 5mm allens on a lot of kawis i use a 10mm and 12mm wrench the most

 

[Shifty]

I don't understand why everyone needs so many tools...

Just kidding,

 

[FyrHazard]

Anyone ever used one of those? Seems like it would be handy to have in the back of the car for emergencies even if it only works half as good as you'd think.

 

[Big Kahuna]

13 is on the kawi's.

8-10-12-14 on SJ's, that all you really need.

except you need 2 of everything. One for home and one for the lake.

 

[Shifty]

I don't know, maybe as a last resort. No offense to those who may own one, but I think its best suited for a housewife or single mother. It is a great concept though.

 

[Shifty]

Don't forget the 17mm for the flywheel bolt.

13 is on the kawi's.

I have 1. U want it? Pay shipping and it's yours.

Not worth it's weight in scrap.

 

[FyrHazard]

That's what I figured. Sometimes those things end up being better than you'd think -but rarely!

 

[tilleryrat]

I would love to know what everyone uses on the lower 4 exhaust manifold bolts. I use a ground down 12, that works a little at a time, again, and again, and again, and again....
