Default Ignition Module ?

I am away from home for a few days and I am having problems with my ignition module. When the car gets hot it will start to miss and then die until the module cools down. Then it will start and run fine for awhile. I have the module but I don't have my tools with me. Does anyone know what size/type bolts are holding the module to the distributor? I don't want to pull the distributor this far from home (and don't have the right tools anyway) but I can get to the two bolts. I just don't want to go buy a bunch of tools just to change the module. If anyone knows the size and wants to share I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Went to a Auto store and bought a "Ford Distributor Mounted Ignition Module Tool" It is a 5.5MM socket with a 1/2" hex on the rear so you don't have to remove the distributor. It didn't fit so I bought a mirror and found out mine has Torx heads in it. Since I am heading home today I hope the car makes it all the way since I have several sets of Torx bits at home. If not I guess I will be buying some on the way.
