It's a Torx E4 deep socket. I got mine at the Auto Parts store. I think Vulcan is the brand. You might want to try Snap-on.
I just looked it up in the Snap-on catalog-It's a 1/4" drive deep Torx socket E4
Part # STLE40

How many miles are on the opti that you put a new cap and rotor on? Why in the world would you just do a cap and rotor when you already had the water pump offand the engine tore down? If your going that deep you might as well do a whole new opti. Spend the extra cash and get a whole new opti instead of spending a couple hundred bucks fopr a cap and rotor which you will probably have to go back and put a whole new opti on sooner more than later. Just replacing the cap and rotor is a waste of time and money........

I have 73000 miles on the 95. It really wasn't that bad of a job. I have a side business repairing.What brand of Opti do you recommend. Stock or aftermarket? The cap and rotor are MSD pieces.
