6mm is the size I use. Kinda loose but spoke wrenches usually are a little loose.

Well i finally defeated the stuck bolt. Although i may have gotten a bit overzealous with the punch as I boogered the threads. I will have to figure something out there. Either cut off the boogered part or replace. Engine is free though.

Easy enough to just replace it.

Sometimes there are sacrificial parts. Luckily it was the bolt and not the cover or the frame.

Yeah although every time I see one on the bay, they want $20 for it. Might just grond off those last 2 threads and see how it looks. If not good I will replace it. I have the rims soaking in Oxalic acid right now. The front looks like it may be good enough. The rear has a lot of flaking chrome near the edge

Looks like its an M10x135 bolt. Replace it with another one unless you are really wanting an original one.

I often buy collections of parts like this. A quick trip to the zinc platers and you are good to go....

Yeah, plus that guy is a mere 1.5 hour drive from me. I did buy all the stuff to try some at home zinc plating as well
