Absolutely awesome, for three reasons:
1.) Large enough that you don’t have to worry about draining the oil and not hitting the pan.
2.) Small enough opening that the drain plug won’t fall into it and you have to fish around in old oil to find it.
3.) It’s enclosed and has a small funnel cap so you can pour your old oil into the empty oil quarts without spillage.
It just makes your oil changes that much easier and CLEANER.
can i ask what a cheater bar is?
what lever off the back?
All of my cars that have push in pistons actually have specific tools dedicated to that purpose… (my hyundai/m3/audi all had specific manufacturer tools and the procedure was in the manual)
Always seemed to mess things up when you took the one on my old Fiero apart like that so I’ve always used the tool since. Good to know though.
Fuck you, you shitty bolt.
You’re joking right?
If not, take a breaker bar and slip a 3 foot piece of pipe on it for extra leverage. That’s a cheater bar. It’s what those of us too cheap to buy air tools use to remove stubborn bolts. :lol:
Old patio furniture cushions
I use them all the time in the garage, because laying on concrete is not comfortable. Also jumping up and down to grab tools from a concrete surface can suck less with some cushion.
Jay fiero’s rear brakes just suck plain and simple. That was such an awesome idea to use aluminum calipers with steel pistons—duhhhh
Beck those sears removers are fucking awesome. I didnt think they would work worth a shit till i used one. Wow they work awesome(when sharp)
LOL sorry never heard it reffered to as that. I’m an air tool guy but i will admitt to using my floor jack handle on the end of a rachet for leverage
i have a nice cheater bar that i use… i got lucky and found a pipe with the ID the same as the OD of another… so i have a nice slip stype that i can use to gain as much leverage or clearance as i need…
just lubed it up with a little anti seize compound and voila
Snapon cordless impact. Worth every penny.
The only tool that can do ANY automotive job.
Haha my friends always ask me why the hell I have futniture cushions in my garage.
Swivel extensions
Magnetic antenna pointer thingy
I thought these would be quite handy
I have a sparkplug socket with a built in universal joint. That works really well on the bike.
you would think that… until you figure out it isnt…
i could only see that useful if you strapped it inside the engine bay…
i couldnt find a pic but i have these pliers that are specially made for pinching off lines with fluid in them.
they are awesome when u have to disconnect fuel lines n rubber brake lines n coolant lines.
at goodyear we just changed oil to valvoline and he gave us led flashlights that when u press the top down a magnet comes out and extends about a foot
GENIUS!
a cheap pick and hook set.
plastic interior pry bar set to aid in getting off body clips interior or exterior
wobble extensions, worth it’s weight in gold.
