Title: problem with cyclinder head nuts
Post by DocNeedles on 04/26/09 at 19:07:59

The Suzuki Manual on page 2-4 refers to the cylinder head nuts as being 9 mm and 8 mm.  Mine are 14 mm and 12 mm.  It is a 1986 any suggestions on why the difference?  Thanks.

The size referred to in the books is the size (diameter) of the bolt itself, not the size wrench needed to turn it. The wrench size is bigger.

That threw me also until the guys here explained it to me.

Hey, Thanks for this, I thought I was going crazy.
