and find out what size feeler gauges and torque ratings you need for your specific engine.
Thank you very much Chamberpains!

Sorry, I have been quite busy with work lately and haven't been active much and missed this.

This is for an 871.

1)Dial tourque wrench w/ 8mm Allen head
2)1/2" torque wrench w/ 24mm socket
^these two are for the injector preload for CM871 and previous engine, not required for common rail motors^
3)3/8" torque wrench w/ 19mm flare nut
4)1/4" torque wrench w/ 13mm flare nut
I prefer flare nuts to crows feet, less chance of slipping off, but use whatcha got.
5)3/4" ratchet with short extension for barring over the motor

I have T handle Allen wrenches, the 3 sizes are;
1)8 mm for injector
2)6 mm for valve adjusters
3)3 mm for Jake adjusters
You don't necessarily need to have four different torque wrenches, I do so its just easier setting each one with its corresponding socket, crows foot, so I can just plow through.

It's a good thread, Waterloo, others and I also posted links of where to find some of these tools, at better prices than I did...
