The spark plugs are clogged!

I would not recommend this socket, the spark plug gets stuck in it and is very difficult to remove. I even pulled out the rubber boot and cut it in half thinking less rubber, less holding power, wrong, still stuck. I've seen sockets with magnets, I think I'll try one of those. You must be better than that.

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • Weight

I had the opportunity to use this socket only once.

I've only had the opportunity to use this socket once. After replacing the 16th and final spark plug on my Hemi engine, the rubber boot in the socket came loose and did not stay in place after reinstalling it in the socket. I'm out of Revane's return window; Let's see how Dewalt solves this problem.

Pros
  • Individual drive sockets
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Well done. Fits tight.

My old spark plug head has lost its rubber ring after more than 25 years. This new one is well made and the rubber ring inside can hold the fork in place. I've found that if you pivot the socket in a circular motion, it will disengage from the plug after a few turns. Given how deep the spark plugs are in these engines, it's important to keep the spark plug secure.

Pros
  • Hand tool
Cons
  • Little repairability
