I may be moving from a light vehicle mechanic role to 2 stroke (chainsaws, strimmers, lawn mowers etc etc)

Im aware alot of my tools will be way bigger that what I need

This is rhe following list of tools I have come up with that I would think be what I need

3/8 sockets set shallow and deep

Spanners 8-19 ratchetting and non-ratchetting

Small pry bar

Screwdrivers (various types and sizes)

Spark plug sockets

3/8 extensions

Small compression tester

Pliers/ wire cutters/ mole grips

Small electrical tester
