Re: What are useful tools for inexpensive outboard repair tool box
May I suggest you start with the basics (socket set, spanner wrench set, and screwdriver set). Buy or borrow the rest as needed. By the end of the project you may end up purchasing a lot of the other things on the list anyway, but if you spread it out over time the sticker shock is not as great.
Most people take years to build up their tool box with the things they "need". A lot of the tool boxes have very humble beginnings (screwdriver, pliers/adjustable wrench, and maybe a spanner set).
Take your time, ask lots of questions, be patient, and have fun.
P.S. Has anyone mentioned a scraper to scrape off old gasket material?
Are banks still making loans these days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
