36mm. You can get a Lisle socket from any autoparts store for about $8. It is a shortened version that I found helpful in changing the frame rail fuel filter (HFCM).

The small fuel filter takes a 24 mm socket or 15/16 inch.

Be sure not to over tighten these caps - they can crack (and of course, lube the new o-ring w/ oil).
