Norman,
Thanks for the "correct" tool kit note. I am somewhat
confused, however, by the "dual size" terminlogy. I have
seen wrenches marked in this manner. Having had my MG-TD
and Jaguar XK-120M both with the Whitworth system, I know
that SAE wrenches do not fit Whitworth nuts/bolts, and
vice-versa (unless you just like to round corners. In the
late 50's the British started converting over to UNF threads
and SAE wrench sizes.
What is the meaning of dual-marked wrenches? They can't
possibly fit both bolts. I know there were cars built with
both systems in place. Even in the US, we started
converting engine threas and nuts to meteric, while leaving
suspension and body boltss SAE.
Do you have the rationale? Which Rootes (or other English)
car did use those dual-marked wrenches?
Steve
