Terrible quality, disappointed purchase

As a loyal automotive enthusiast, I was really disappointed with this spark plug tool .It is poorly made and doesn't last long enough to justify its cost. As a result of my tests, I determined that the magnetic feature is not strong enough making it difficult to use with ease. The only positive aspect is that it is somewhat compact and easy to store away. I would not recommend this product to anyone who is serious about working on their own car..

Pros
  • Easy to use for spark plug installation and removal.
Cons
  • Almost everything is there

Great heads with a perfect grip

These outlets are awesome. I needed a socket with very thin walls to go into the valve cover and get the plugs for the plates. I was worried they wouldn't work as well as the rubber inserts, but they actually work better! Enough magnetic force to hang onto the spark plugs but not too much to dislodge them from the extension. The small socket is also very good, I didn't expect it, but I almost want to buy a few more of these rails for my box :). I'm glad I have the whole set and not just one…

Pros
  • CONSTRUCTION: Five sizes give you the flexibility to work in a variety of applications. Internal bushing magnets hold and protect the spark plug for easy installation, while the 14mm and 16mm thin wall bushings feature a 12-point design for better grip and fit.
Cons
  • Sad Hardware
