What size socket do I need to remove the head bolts on a 2F? I want to make sure I have it on hand before I get into the process of pulling it. I buttoned it back up and can't find my micrometer.

I was replacing my ripped valve seals using the fill the cylinder with rope trick. It worked great until the rope magically tied itself in a knot in the cylinder......:bang::mad::censor:

At least this way I can check for scoring on the walls and remove any carbon deposits on the head/valves/pistons.

Thanks.

Edit: I do have the torque specs and order thanks to SOR. I know I need to get a 2F FSM but I just don't have it yet.

Thanks! I was thinking it was some weird size for some reason. But the last head I pulled off a landcruiser engine was 15 years ago.

Will do - No man shop to speak of so I'm using the carport. It is going to have to wait until it is not 30 degrees and raining.
 
As promised here is the little bugger.
