they've varied among years & if factory or been replaced. Generally should be english for the US pushrod engines and metric for the german 3.7/4.7 . Your 3.9 should be 1/2, 9/16, or 5/8 IIRC.

I usually just use a large adjustable wrench. Then again, I'm too lazy to carry several tools if I can avoid it.

Ya know, I do the same thing. Was just curious as to the actual size, for a list I'm working on.
