It worked great! I was able to remove 4.

Cons
  • Only available in white

terrible act of mine

I purchased this item based on previous reviews, terrible act of me. The threaded nut broke on the first glow plug I tried to remove. The design of this product is terrible. If I could leave zero stars I would.

Pros
  • Doping 🔥
Cons
  • Requires Socket

If you have Banks Turbo read this

If you have a 6.2 liter Banks Turbo you will have a very difficult time getting the 3rd connector on the passenger side in front. There is not enough clearance between the distributor and GP to rotate the split nut. Other than that, it's a good fix for a clumsy problem and works well.

Pros
  • It's OK!
Cons
  • Almost never

Great tool! good for tools and equipment

Two glow plugs blew out at 7.3 IDI and I've tried every method I can find to get them out. I've put a 10# slide hammer on one of them to no avail. Received this tool and both plugs were off within 5 minutes. It took me longer to wrap my fingers around the glow plugs than it did to pull them out. It was made from high quality steel. Couldn't be happier.

Pros
  • 1 year test
Cons
  • old

On my 7.3 idi I pulled out 5 swollen glow plugs this way and everything worked perfectly. The product is very well made and the material (stainless steel I think) is thick and very durable. The instructions say to hold the threaded socket with a wrench, but I struggled slightly with scrolling with my fingers. I can highly recommend this remedy.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • There are nuances
