Like everyone else, the old girl is getting a good once over.
Did a complete service on the fuel system, injectors, and replaced the vacuum lines with fresh silicone. All looking good. One thing that stood out was that mongrel of a phillips head screw holding the fuel rail to the housing assembly. The one behind assembly 1&2. Anyway .... finally removed it BUT replaced both with equivalent socket head screws. Now much easier for future dismantling. :onya:

Japanese market screws, they don't fit any proper screwdrivers. You can buy JDM screwdriver sets that do fit though.

Correct.
If you search for JIS screwdrivers "Japanese Industry Standard" on any auction site you will find what you need.
