Review on πŸ”§ Eastyard 14mm Thin-Wall Magnetic Swivel Spark Plug Socket - 3/8-Inch Drive 12-Point Removal Tool for BMW Mini and Other Models by Craig Sexton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

5 stars because of the price. Used for BMW spark plugs

Definitely not the best, but it serves its purpose. The hinged part of the tool does not inspire confidence. it's a bit rough in design and operation. I sprayed some aerosol lube on it to help and spent some time working out the joint. It seemed to help a little, but I would never feel confident enough in that part to use an effect with this tool. Not that I've ever installed impact plugs, but I often remove them this way. #flatratelifeThe inner magnetic ring seems to float inside, held only by its own tension. When I first received it it didn't hold the connector, then I noticed the magnetic ring was too deep. A 90 degree pick was able to push it closer to the socket opening and now it works. I've used it countless times since I bought it and would probably buy it again if need be, just for the price. There are 5 stars for that. Definitely not if I switch to a tool trolley. Works for BMW n20 and n55 with slightly angled fork design. Just a hand tool, of course

Pros
  • , of course also for the old ones
Cons
  • Slightly dented
