Hi all. I am tapping your collective brain power till my shop manual comes in. (Amazon says Oct 15 - I went for the free shipping (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) )

Tonight I was thinking on going to sears and getting some good wrenches. I have lots of fractional wrenches, but just about nothing in metrics. It has been my experience that some wrenches are used all the time, and buying a "wrench set" blind could either net you lots of unused wrenches, or worse, not having the size that you need in the set.

So, what are the common sizes that I am going to need?
My car is a 1976 2.0L

I searched, but "Common wrench size" turned up nothing, and "Wrench size" turned up too much to sift through, at least while sitting at in my office. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Thanks all,

Zach
