1987 Suburban TPS bolt heads???
 
Hey fellas, I am about to leave work with limited tools, can anyone tell me what tool I need for the bolt heads on the 87 burb TPS. I am thinking a T-25 which I have with me, but I can't confirm that online. If you have the knowledge please let me know. It could save me a long trip in the nasty DC traffic if I don't have to go to my storage unit for the rest of my tools.

Happy Truckin'
Kevin

Thanks for the information. I assumed the bolt was much smaller. I was way off.

Head bolts have been the same since 1955 there are some after market ARP 12 point that I think are 9/16 unless you are talking about the valve covers tho ea would be 7/16. A T-25 is a torx I don't know of any one that uses that unless it's foreign

No problem, it was a t-25 for the TPS bolts/screws. I got it done and didn't have to sit in traffic.

Thanks
