Thank you and others for all for the input. My 2002 CR-V has about 80K miles and I plan to do some maintenance on my own now instead of taking to the dealer. Yes it has the K24 engine with timing chain. I plan to do some simple fluid changes for now. I bought a floor jack recently from...

- I plan to buy to get the sockets from Sears. - Philips? screw driver? - Crank pulley tool - for what? I have a CR-V. I'll order a S-K ratchet online then. thanks for all your input.

Can you please elaborate on that?

I guess I could buy a different ratchet. Any recommendation? I'd prefer to buy with long handle to apply more torque. I can always buy the sockets separately. I have a 2002 Honda.

Thanks. This site is full of resources (almost too much info to browse through). People seem to say Craftsman is the best tool, with the warranty by Sears etc.

Sorry, I corrected it.

Newbie here, just want to get a basic tool set for basic automotive maintenance. Would this be a good choice for a socket wrench set (Stanley tools): http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000JPWD92/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Or this (Craftsman): http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00934864000P thanks.
