Question Size Of Rear Oil Pressure Regulator?

I couldn't find this using the search (there were very few references to the oil pressure regulator).

Anyone know the size of the rear oil pressure regulator? I have one that's really stubborn and I need to buy the proper sized socket to remove...Unfortunately, I broke my calipers so I can't measure it myself.

Thanks!

Engine is in pieces. Unfortuantely, I don't have a crescent wrench with a long enough handle. Also, to reinstall, I need to follow the torque specs.

I know this is a really old thread but while doing research for taking mine off I found no answers.

So, the size which you need is 1 1/16" socket or whatever the metric equivalent is.

Also, holy old topic.
