    Spark plug socket size?

    Anybody know what size socket I need to pull the plugs on my 1.6L Geo Tracker engine in my sammy? It's at the shop at the moment and I am going ot sears tonight anyway.
    Thanks,

    Standard sizes are 5/8" and 13/16" as far as I know. But on a Geo Tracker, who knows.

    I posted up on the sammi forum on pirate. Maybe they will know off hand. It's a VERY common swap in sammis

    With an engine that size my guess would be 5/8". Just by a spark plug socket set...it's normally only 2 or 3 sockets (if it includes 7/8") and won't cost that much.

    Yea its just the normal little one on my 1.8L. Got to have some extensions to get to them, but then I have 2 cams where I think you have only 1.

    Decided to buy a $20 set from sears. I'm sure one of them works. I just wanted to have a set so that next time I roll (clayton?) I can blow out the cylinders

    uh, yeah. I think that I may have missed this thread while I was home due to my slow ISP.

    Wanted to know what all sizes came in the set too.
