Some are 11/32" wrench and some are 3/8". Maybe some are even 5/16", but I do not think so on OEM coils. As far as the thread/size, I believe it is 10-32, but I can't recall exactly. I can look tonight.

I believe it's 10 - 32 also oh, I wanted to bring my coil with me on my way to work today so I can stop at the hardware store on my way home but I just realized that I forgot. Thanks for your help!

Side note: why do most "complete" wrench sets you buy off the shelf skip size 11/32", the size needed for 8-32 threaded nuts? :?
