Lisle 52990 Spark Plug Pliers

When I used it for the first time, I was able to remove the first four plug wire boots on my six cylinder Explorer with a little bit of pulling, but on the fifth boot, the metal shaft's connection to the handle broke. In inspection of the tool shaft, it was seen that the end which was inside the handle had not been flattened, and also hadn't been turned in order to prevent it from pulling out of the injection-molded The shaft/handle design of this is essentially junk! I'm a retired shop teacher with a lot of experience with tools. There is an expectation that Lisle is a decent brand name, or at least it used to be. My experience with Lisle led me to not purchase any of their products in the future, and I have recommended that you think twice. I would like to speak with you if you are listening, Lisle.

You can use both of them to remove rubber spark plug It is also true in vehicles that have not had routine maintenance. The boot appears to adhere to the sparkplug insulator in many cases. It allows the operator to grasp the boot at the lowest point. Twist the boot in a circular motion in order to avoid injury Twiggling it off the plug means taking it back and forth on the plug a few times.

This is Shazam. Keeping this item would have been a wise decision for me As more and more cars are being built with coils The plug (COP), on the other hand, is not as important. It is an absolute necessity when there are plugs and plug wires in older cars. The plugs on a Ford 4 just needed to be changed. A SOHC engine with a 0L displacement. The plug puller proved useful on two of three plug wires on the passenger side of the car, but it was a pain to access the plugs. Removing the third one required the use of 90 degree long nose pliers. Three of the four on the drivers side also pop off as well, with the third obstructed by a bit of
Visit this site to get this inexpensive tool to remove old-looking paint, and see if you can get rid of the stubborn ones. I couldn't get rid of two of them with the tool it was more a result of Ford engineers doing things themselves. The wires on the school plug. Buying a $20 set of wires instead will give you a 5x return over the $40 set that you would have purchased at the local auto outlet.

0. Incorporates the following The spark plug wire puller I purchased is for someone who doesn't have access to spark plugs An application standard would be During the removal of the glow plug/cylinder pressure sensors on my 2010 VW Jetta TDi CR ("Common Rail"), I had to remove seven connectors. In order to answer the question of how well it works, here is a twitter style answer I find it very useful. Those who are interested in more information should contact me In the CR TDi 4-, glow plugs may be found An ignition coil in a modern DOHC 4-cylinder diesel engine resides in the same location as one in a modern DOHC 4-cylinder gasoline engine The gas engine has a four-cylinder design. In a similar manner to removing and installing a spark plug, the plug/sensors are removed and reinstalled. It is the hard plastic boot/connector for the glow plug in VW/Audi CR TDI engines that causes the issue The VW/Audi (VAG) OEM gadget for removing the connector for plug/cylinder pressure sensors is not cheap, and the tool to remove it is notoriously difficult. It is a tool by Lisle that has a cost of about $10 and makes removing the connector easy and, more importantly, convenient By removing the connector, it prevents it from being damaged. This is an even better deal because of the low price It is important to consider the fact that sensors and plugs are usually only replaced every 80,000 km in most cases The average American travels about 120,000 miles a year. When an effective tool has a low price, it is much less annoying. The tool should only be used a few times during the lifetime of the car, especially if it is used only a few times. As soon as my sensor went bad, I searched the Internet to find out how to replace Pliers were tried by a number of people It caused damage to the hard plastic connector on the vehicle after using boot pullers. Individuals in DIY videos showed how to rip the connector out from the bottom by using a modified flat blade screwdriver A warning was issued regarding the possibility of connector damage. It was tempting to use the backyard technique to save $80 on a designer tool, but I didn't want to risk damage to the connector by doing so - instead, I used the risk free ice cube method to repair it. It is especially costly to repair a tool if it would cost more than an In spite of that, I was eager to consider reasonable alternatives rather than purchasing a This puller was the best one I found after examining several others. At first, I chose to buy it due to the low price – just under $10 – to see if it would work – and to my complete surprise, it does (and better than I imagined). It is so convenient to use this design on a CR TDI glow-in-the-dark A plug/sensor connector applies even pressure around the midpoint detent because it applies even pressure evenly across the entire The glow-in-the-dark feature is exceptionally effective in the tight space inside the glow-in-the-dark The fuel rail plug can be inserted between the valve cover and the fuel rail recess, and is easily maneuvered between both. In addition to being a lot cheaper than the VW/Audi (VAG) part, it also comes with a lifetime guarantee. The following are effective (and just as efficient) The file did not need to be modified.

When I first saw the reviews I thought it suggested that I use this on my 98 F-350 The number 150 is It wasn't as useful as 6 said, but I am glad I got them when I changed a spark plug. The gunk on the wire and the fact that I was immersed in the engine make it difficult to swap out the plug manually. Even the few knuckles that were spared were worth it for what I paid. In addition, it can be used to hold other cylindrical objects, and the clamps are coated so they don't mar surfaces. The grip it gives the copper tubing helps prevent skin oils from getting on the surface and tarnish it quickly. I used this when polishing copper tubing and found it helpful.

With the offset pliers I had no problem removing the spark plug wires from my old Chevrolet 454 cars. As the boots were practically welded to the plugs after the 21 years of age, I would not have been able to get it done without these pliers. It was the ones in the back left side of the engine that required the most effort to remove, as there was not enough room to get to them. It is my intent not to destroy or break anything during this Now that the pliers are in my tool box, they will most likely remain there forever. The next spark plug change I will need won't be for a while. Although the pliers looked rusty in the package after the package sat in my workshop for several months before I opened it, they became rusty once I opened They were not injured in any way.

My 2002 Chevy C1500 V6 needed spark plug boots removed, so I purchased this to do it. This motor has never undergone major maintenance and its spark plug boots are varnished to the insulators of the plugs (the plugs were incredibly worn). It has sheet metal heat shields around the plugs and sheet metal heat shields around the ignition coil. Because the plugs on this vehicle are at 90 degrees to the engine, the angle at which the jaws were positioned was crucial. Because the jaws are not padded and they are thin, I found it difficult to get them around the boot due to interference with the sheet metal heat shield, but I was able to twist the boot right and left and pull it off. take into account how much it would cost to replace one spark plug wire, it is a reasonable purchase, even if you use it only.
