HELP URGENT, HEAD BOLT SOCKET SIZE PLEASE!

Post by Rovernaut »

Hi I'm in the process of removing the head of the 3.9 litre V8 on the Disco.
WHAT IS THE SOCKET SIZE for the head bolts?
16mm seems a little loose, 5/8 incn seems close?
The last bolt near firewall end is vey tight. I don't want to strip it.
Maybe my multi sided sockets are the wrong type.

16mm , but had to have flat inners and not multi pointed.
I used one from an impact wrench it fit perfectly. :D
