What size are the boltheads on the fuel rail on an 88 302? Tried every size.....no luck. An 8mm was the closest, but was a bit to big.

May be they're 9/32??
But that doesn't sound right, does it...

The 9/32 (.281)is to small. I did manage to break one loose with an 8mm, but slipped on the other three. I was afraid to warm up the area with a torch but I may have to. It might be more practical to pull the lower intake......that way when I twist the heads off the stubborn little SOBs, I can fix it on the bench instead of being humped up under the hood of the Bronco!!

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 11-Mar-02 AT 07:02 AM (EST)] Try using 5/16"-7.93mm or if this is still too big perhaps 7.5mm?
