RE: sudden car death (deader than ever!)



But be sure that you get a good quality set of hex keys.  Craftsman hex keys
will strip.  I have a set of Blackhawk hex keys, which I believe is the
Stanley professional grade, and that's what we use on the machines at work
also.  They cost me about $35, but they won't strip like the Craftsman hex
keys.  We've stripped quite a few Craftsman hex keys at work, and I have
stripped them on VW WP pulleys as well.
