L200 DID cylinder head bolt removal

#1 by Cameron25 ( Guest ) , Tue Feb 26, 2019 4:49 pm

Hi I have stripped the top of my 2007 l200 DID down to the cylinder head to replace the gasket, everything was going just fine until I got to removing the head bolts which looks like they need removing with a torx socket but my E20 is too small and the E22 is to big, so I guess I am using the wrong tools any guidance would be much appreciated thank you.

Damn......... I should have tried a bog standard 14mm 12 point socket first, thanks.
