    Can someone please confirm if my Chrysler Neon has imperial (inches) or
    metric (mm) sized fastenings?

    (I did my first oil change at the weekend and my 13mm spanner didn't fit the
    sum plug very well - I'm worried I'll have to buy some imperial spanners &
    sockets)

    Many thanks

    who Guest

    All new Chrysler models have been metric since the late 70s.

    Wrong. The USA metric conversion process is a mess. In the fall I bled
    brakes on a 1998 Jeep. The bleed screws on the front calipers were metric
    and the rear drum bleed screws was English.

    And as a 41-year old Englishman, I'd have to disagree with that, as I've
    never been taught the imperial measurement system. I'm 41, 1m83 tall, weigh
    92kg and sail a 6.68m boat. I buy petrol in litres and measure the distance
    I drive in miles.

    Duh! But please don't call the imperial system English, as many of us are
    desperately trying to get away from what little is left of it. Hopefully my
    Neon's fasteners are all in English. (Metric)

  6. Whose empire do you think "imperial" is referring to?

    I didn't vote for her. There are a few other 'Imperial Majesties' around
    the world. Look at them, not mine.
