Schley (SCH65350) Universal Long Reach Spark Plug Boot Puller

Good

I bought this item to change the spark plugs on a 2001 750iL where the spark plugs are deep in the engine and hard to reach anyway. The sockets are somewhat delicate to get off. Pulling the wiring might result in a broken socket what is about $250. There is not space for a hand either.This tool doesn't work at all, cause it is too big to reach in to the tiny opening. The other problem is that the wiring has to be really long and thin to work with this too cause the outlet on the tool is all the way up. It will not work if you have a protective lining around the wiring. A third isssue is that the tool slips of the socket even if you apply a lot of force to the grips.All in all this tool is a bis waste of money. For places you can reach by hand, you dont need it anywhere else it doesnt work. Don't waste your money on it.

My advise is to pass on this tool.The jaws of the tool come down straight from the pivot point. This prevents the tool from clamping squarely on the bottom of a spark plug boot. You a only squeezing the boot at the very top. It may have worked well for the thin boots found on the 1960s and earlier cars, but nothing that I own today.The Lisle 51250 spark plug boot puller is cheaper and actually works.
