First, the colour of the case looked nice but in retrospect i wish it were black as after one use the kit got dirty. More importantly, the sockets stick on to the bolt head when you’re tightening. This is a big problem for me and a cause of much frustration. Imagine a socket getting stuck down in your engine after you tighten your spark plug! I’m glad I didn’t try it for spark plug repairs at first and I don’t think I ever will! To get the socket loose from surface bolts i had to keep knocking the socket. There’s no way you’re going to be able to do that when the socket is down in the spark plug whole. The next issue i have is that the rachet arm does not stay in position. So when I open the kit it always falls out. There is a file in the kit that I took out once and up to now i can’t get it back in the space in the kit. I fear if i use any more force i might break it.
For the price a perfect combination of tools. Put this in the trunk of my car as the only tools carried.
Truck is full of tools but gas prices make the little car very attractive
and this tool kit has been handy instead of “sure I have one but it is in the truck”.
