Tool Kit

[b4dnuf]

Just wondering what basic instruments you need. As sometimes if you buy a tool kit you dont end up using half the stuff.
Just looking for minor stuff like fluid change, brakes etc.
What is in your tool kit?

def need a 10mm 12mm, 14, 17 and 19 Spanners, Same size bit sockets. pliers, breaker bar, screw drivers..

I started my collection on a need to use basis, others buy the whole kit at once.

Off the top of my head:
a good trolley jack
jack stands (four)
breaker bar
decent ratchet 1/2" & 3/8"
1/2" sockets mm
distilled water
funnels
3/8" sockets mm
extension bars 1/2" and 3/8"
torque wrench 1/2"
spark plug socket
pliers of different sizes
drip tray
spanner set
oil filter tool (go to honda)
good tool box(es) with a lock so people don't borrow your tools
& if you haven't got it already, a manual on your model of car to refer to for questions

that'll get you started on basics
