I was wondering if anyone knew the size of the front caliper hex so I can replace my lovely warped Brembo rotors. I have done them, but I was using the shop where I used to work and do not have the tool. TIA!!!

I think my '96 Achieva uses a 3/8 allen head. Yours might be the same.

Thanks, I'll try that size. I wanted to just get the single hex socket driver, as I would not need a whole set. I could also use it on the wifes Sunfire.
On a side note, there is a guy on ebay selling "new reclaimed" coil pack/module assy's for $60.00. They are taken off new engines at the factory where his friend works. He says they are good and if for some reason they ae not, he will replace it. Has good feedback. Mine will be here next week sometime. I had a flashing check engine light twice with a #3 cylinder misfire code. Just gonna swap the whole assy out since they are the originals and have 116,000 mile on them. You can do an eBay search under "gm ignition" to find them. just a heads up for such a good price...
