The Craftsman 4 piece spark plug socket set features the following

points."

So how come I have an 11/16" spark plug socket? Is that a fifth size?
And since when are there more than 2 sizes?

Late model Ford V-8's use plugs that take a 9/16" socket.


So that makes 6 sizes?

And what size socket fits the 8mm plugs used in the old Honda 125
twin?? If I remember correctly it was 13mm or 1/2 inch on the original
plugs, but that was a long time ago. I think NGK er9eh. / Champion
5596 / Bosch 3016
