What size socket???

FROGGY · 10th November 2007, 14:03

Can anyone tell me what size deep socket is required to remove the fuel high-pressure sensor (the one that sits under the air intake at the end of the fuel rail (where you plug one end of Ron's box))?
I have no deep sockets big enough, and I don't want to buy a full set if I can avoid it.

Thanks
Mick

.....talk it over amongst yourselves.

Come on chaps, somebody who has done the job must have some idea?
(I can see it's bigger than 10mm and smaller than 40mm!

I had a quick look and could not find it. Nothing unusual there though as it normally takes me ages to find the first page
