Worth every penny for tools and equipment

I was hesitant to buy this product because I had never seen or heard of it. After removing a screw in my gearbox after getting the wrong part, I bought it. I was scared unpacking it and during installation time. I mean it was basically a spring with a metal insert. However, after I managed to get my drill bit into the engine bay and cover up everything I could to avoid metal debris in my transmission by drilling it out and then tapping it (doesn't include a threading tool on the machine, a wrench for 1 /4 ). worked fine but it was clean and frustrating) I put in a metal insert with a threaded fastener. The metal insertion tool got stuck during installation and required a lot of wiggling to get it out. At the end, use the assembly tool to snap off the end of the insert as it will be stuck. Then it came out, I drove it with the breaking tool and installed my part. I don't know, as good a seal as the previous one, but it stopped the oil leak and lets my car drive normally. It was on padded services and it doesn't flow at all. Good product, definitely get this one rather than just one size for variety. A beautiful metal case, much appreciated, helps keep everything in order. In my crazy mechanical pocket mess. 7/10 I would buy again. -3 due to the lack of a faucet and the slight roughness of some design elements. Worth every penny for not taking this car to the mechanic! I could still use old screws from the car and work with a threaded insert!
