yea them too lol, what are the 4 im looking for called?

"Cylinder-to-crankcase nuts" @ about 6ft-lbs?

i dont think there the one for the 8mm or 9mm. because i have to use a 14mm to take them off or does it go buy the size of the bolt and not nut?

if thats the case and idea what mine may be? its a 2001

if its help i can fit a 9mm socket snugly over the bolt and an 8mm will not fit does that mean there 9mm?

lol, not a real ethical way of finding out i guess but i would think thats what they would be right?
