Fuel tank bolts
Car is up on jackstands, panels off, What kind and size of socket do I need for those funny looking star bolts that hold the fuel tank to the frame?

What do I tell the parts store guy?

I'll work on it.... The tank is out now, but I'll take some pics of the whole thing, the pump, those pesky fuel line clips and the star bolts
