[socalwrench]

There are tons of tools I use to work on newer cars.

Below are the BASICS that I would suggest:
-screwdrivers (usually 3 sizes of philips and flat blades)
-3/8" ratchet
-3/8" metric sockets (8mm and up)
-3/8" torx sockets
-spark plug socket
-metric wrenches (8mm - 21mm)
-1/2" ratchet
-1/2" metric DEEP sockets (13mm and up) (deep sockets for lug nuts; impacts are an option for use later with an impact gun)
-1/2" torque wrench (click type)
-large channel locks
-small square pliers
-small needle nose pliers
-rubber mallet
-hammer
-gasket scraper
-multimeter (voltmeter, ammeter, ohmmeter, continuity tester)
