Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

One of the best tools I bought recentlt has to be the Sykes and Pickavant long reach 16mm plug socket for the 16v head. Those who know it can be a bastard to get the plugs in and out without the correct socket On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:

Has to be either my 1/4 drive flexy snap on ratchet, my locking wire pliers or my 1/4 drive imperial allen key sockets. Then i do love the lathe and mill, and the tig welder.

More than a tenner a socket iirc a set of 12 was about £150. Worth their weight in gold. Just got a set of six but in 3/8 drive from Mac tools for £29. |

My favourite tools have to be a selection of hammers, the compressor, and the uj things for sockets that allow you to get into awkward gaps. On 7th Oct, 2010 5haneJ said:
