Right, I’m using an 18” breaker bar with 3/8 crescent socket attachment. 21mm, so sounds like 22mm is the way to go. Good to know the valves do last. $10 part I’ll just keep on hand. ThanksAll nuts and bolt on 100 series are metric. But in many cases an SAE is so close you can use it. You can stick a caliper on it and measure the size.
BTW: A 12", 18," 24," etc. crescent wrench, refers to length.
I test in place, and only find ~1 in 100 bad. Most test okay. I squirt a little penetrating lubricate in for good measure. But if the engine always run on synthetic or just has a good history of frequent oil change they're always good.
Why do you want to remove it?
