FIND YOUR SPARK!
Oct 17th
New from Gunson is this super-versatile Spark Plug Tester (part number 77176), a mains-powered diagnostic tool tailored for both professional and home mechanics as well as classic car enthusiasts. The tester replicates engine RPM and enables easy visual assessment of spark plug condition and performance.
The simulated RPM output is easily adjusted from 1000rpm to 6000rpm, testing the spark plug throughout this rev range; a plug may seem to be sparking adequately at cranking or idling speeds but breaks down at higher RPM. Importantly, with dual testing ports, users can easily compare two spark plugs simultaneously, assisting in diagnosis. A brand-new More >

SHIFT STUBBORN FIXINGS
Oct 10th
Designed specifically for stubborn and high torque crankshaft pulley fixings, Laser Tools has just introduced a set of three counter-weighted 1/2in drive sockets (part number 8953).
These are engineered for removing extremely tight fixings – the added weight reduces impact loss, allowing more effective torque delivery from impact guns. The high strength and mass make the socket very rigid; less torque from the impact gun is wasted in socket distortion, this torque going straight to the fastener.
Suitable for a range of vehicles and ideal for high-torque applications, particularly high-torque crankshaft pulley fixings. The three sizes included are 17mm, 19mm, and 21mm More >
