Hey tool geeks!!!! Gotta few questions...
Okay, so here's the deal:
I have this wrench organizer, and I have one extra space available. I can put either a 15mm or a 16mm comination wrench in there. So what's more common in Vettes and GM cars in general? 15mm or 16mm? Which would you want?
Also, I got this new air compressor for Christmas. Got some air tools with it. Does anyone know of a good website that'll give me a quick overview of how to properly use the tools? I have used air tools before, but I need to know how much pressure to set the regulator at, various dos and don'ts, etc.
(ps.. I know I gotta oil the tools... I got an inline oiler to help with that).
TIA!!!

Put the 15 in there. I can't even think of a 16 on the Vette but should you run into one, the 5/8" is identical anyway. Most of the air tools you buy will tell what pressure they're designed to run at. Of course, I don't know anyone who actually does that!
