I don't remember the size, but it's just a 12pt socket.

Its a 10 on the ka's I think, I'd guess its the same on the ca's. I didn't have any 12 point sockets, had to buy one for those.

10 seems about right. Not sure, I could go check but would require a bit of digging to find the squirters for my 2nd block.

is there such a thing as a ten-point socket? that can't be right, I have pulled those before and I have no disfunctiasocket so it's got to be a 12.

"disfunctiasocket", at the risk of bending over and kissing my own ***, I think I just made a new word, call Webster, I am copyrighting it!

I think they're saying a size 10 12-point socket? Or are you being sarcastic and I'm too tired to catch it...
