5205 | Laser Tools | Broken Glowplug Removal Set 

Consider removing music from an instructional video so the audio can be heard better.

Ömründe hiç klavuz açmamis birisi denemesin.Hassas bir iş.Metal ve benzeri isler yapmis kisi icin cok kullanisli ve pratik bir Set ben kendim kullandim sonuç mükemmel.Temiz iş olumlu sonuç bu set çok kullanişli tavsiye ederim.

I've just been using this kit to try to remove a broken glow plug from my s210 Mercedes E300 Turbodiesel, the one nearest the bulkhead. It's an absolute pig to get at. Firstly, there wasn't a hope in hell of hammering anything onto the cap. I finally got it off with a pair of gas pliers. Then I checked the video for the next step. Just grip the central electrode and twist it out he says. The damn thing won't let go for love nor money' I've been gripping and twisting for an hour to no avail. Used pliers initially - no chance. Most recent attempt was with a pair of mole grips and a wrecking bar (small one), still not shifting the 'kin' thing. Off out again now to try something else.

Thank you so much for your advice

Had some snapped off glow plug left in the hole,threads must be pretty done in because a good hard rev nearly shot the bit through the bonnet lol

I've got my glow plugs coming tomorrow...thinking twice about doing it myself now.

very good

Nice kit ,professionals will appreciate this

This system of removing a damaged glow plug looks great and the demonstration video is very well presented but how often are you lucky enough that the core electrode comes out so easily allowing you to drill out the centre let alone tap a thred so you can insert an extraction adaptor after all the conductor in the centre is very hard with a diameter of approximately 2.5mm surrounded by ceramic material which in most cases will kill a good quality dill bit I have no doubt that this kit will have a time and place where it will be well suited to the job at hand but as someone else commented try using this system on an engine in situ and i think it will be a complete pain in the ars!

Be nice if there was a guide sleeve for the step drill, just to give you a better chance of keeping it on centre when drilling the threaded portion. Got to do my mates van in the next few day which will be fun.

Hi, can u help please...... I bought this kit but the threads keep failing when trying to pull the plug out....... I'm going to try an loctite the threads first before pulling but other than that what can I do? Thanks in advance, gina.

I have a Gmc savanna with the 6.5L turbo diesel and there is no room to use that tool kit to remove those broken off glow plugs, the tool will have to be a low profile tool kit, Do you have any thing else?

Anyone help my vectra c glow plug snapped in head the plug is 9mm looking at extractors the are 8/10mm are they referring to the threads or the plug itself. Tried asked but no one seems to know. Any advice

Use some penetrating oil on the plug... drive around for a week and wait for it to loosen up. When you do come to removing the plug do it when the engine has warmed up

@0.49 you’re havin a right good laugh aren’t ya bruv. Never have I ever seen one of them soot welded electrodes just slide right out as such.

Where did you bought the remove set ? Plis share the link !!

Thanks

Its a big difference when the motor is out of the truck.

it looked like the thread had been completely destroyed and nothing left to pick out as you described

Excellent video.

This is all good but if the plugs are situated at the back of the engine as are the one's in my van then you can't get the drill in there to drill them out ! 😕

Good tool, Just purchased to remove 2 seized plugs in a Ford TDCI engine in a Citroen Relay. The kit was used to remove the plugs. The drill worked lovely down the body of the glowplug and extraction wen't as per instructions. But, two nibs were seized solid in the block and did not come out with the plug body. Option limited to removing cylinder head to tap them out, but I lubed them & carefully tapped them down towards the cylinder to see if they moved which they did, so lubed them over a weekend. So after testing to see if the ones I took out had magnetic tips, I pulled the injectors out of 2 cylinders and used a 5.5mm neodynium magnet to fish them out of the bores in 15 minutes. Be prepared to shear off the nibs with this kit and have a plan to remove them after.

yes all well and good but how do you get the electrode out if that gets stuck in

Great tool! Thank you! Only issue I had was I didn't tap the plug deep enough the first time so it snapped. Drill bit extender was clutch on my Sprinter! Consider taping a straw to your shop vac and using long cotton swabs for clean up as it does leave some metal bits behind.

In my engine the glow plugs are behind the engine. You cannot even see them. Using this removal set is handy with the engine on a bench.

Thx amazing informative video

Get your engine Terracleaned first to rid the glow plug tips of carbon , then spray plugs with penetrating oil for a week while still using the car daily , then try removing the plugs with a 1/4" torque wrench set at 10-15nm for 8mm plugs .

Easy job to do by some ( home workshop tools ) or another tools too, when cyl-head is "on table" , taken open at engine ..... Do same when cyl head installed, MB Sprintrer -Vito 4-6cyl engines, or GM 6.2-6.5 or Duramax Diesel engines .... Or any another car .....

Very helpfull my friend, thank you !

Sadly the tap bar doesnt fit an Audi A3. But with a bit of trickery got it out! But.. new plug is spinning, wont catch thread. Any ideas?

My sprinter has one broke off flush nothing but a flat top dark core. Will this still work?

Does this fit a Mercedes OM648 straight six?

Try this on a 2011 Mondeo, 2.0...

.46 mine snapped off flush and now i am stuck

Guess what. Tried this, cylinder never fired again. Head off, rings busted with swarf. Massive job, expensive job. Secret of this replacement is to run the engine hard, using the heat from the hard run engine to ease the glow plug out. One plug out then drive the car hard again to remove the second plug, etc. Heat helps so much.

The step drill for M10 glow plugs broke in the middle of the plug during the drilling...

well, I might have missed something or he's using an oversized glow plug.... he drilled and tapped the head before removing the glow plug body, yet the new plug still fits that newly tapped thread? how :s

Just tried to do this exact procedure with this exact tool on my mk1 Fiat Doblo.I actually failed at the part i thought would be the easiest,pulling out the glow plug body after you have threaded down into it,so pissed off!!I'm just pulling on this thing and the threaded hole i've made down into the old plug just gives out and the threads don't hold onto the puller,the threads just turn to mush and puller just comes up past the threads!!?What do i do now??

So..... Am I right in saying. This rips out the heater plugs threads? If so. Do I then have to use a bigger tap to use a bigger heater plugs? Surely you don't tap the same size thread as the one I just ripped out as I've just ripped out all the metal?

if I drill the tread out will the plug not fall into the cylinder ie they are tapered

what about the metal scrapings that can fall in the cylinder room ?

i need one of these

tell me this tools it will be good to fix broken glow plug in the Ford TRANSIT 2004

How do u put in without new gewinde? So cheap

We need a tool for them dam duramaxs !!

Where do you get replacement drill bits?

the black drill bits; what are they for?

Great tool, but try doing that with the head still on the car. In most vehicles I would say........... Extremely difficult and unlikely

Rather then cutting the top half snapped you have the hole to stick unscrewer to use it anti clockwise that will mitigate the risk of dropping the tip inside

Try this on 1.6 hdi

Gutes Video aber so einfach ist nicht! Beim B Klasse ist echt eine scheiß Arbeit 😂 aber sehr hilfreich! Grüße

Also if you just cut the top thread , don’t do anything just start the engine when its warm it will shoot out like a bullet , it’s happened to me

No room whit a Vito w639 115 cdi😢

They removed the head to make it easier to film yeah right. Will see how well it works on a 3.0 l fiat ducato

You'll never get access with these tools whilst the cyl head is in situ

So I just got this tool and did the job on my sprinter van. I was confident that I would be able to do the job without ruining the treads and remove the plug after watching several videos. I applied what I had learned and went on with performing the job with my gf vacuuming the shavings every couple seconds. I had chosen the correct bit and tapping bit to clean the treads up. I got the plug out but when I went to put the new plug in it wouldn't tread in and this was a problem. I panicked because I had just ruined my engine per say and was very nervous that it would cost way more than this kit or just bringing it in to a repair shop to perform the plug extraction. I had to have my van towed and had a new hole drilled with a new thread insert put in and it cost me 739 dollars when I could have only paid maybe 200 for them to remove the plug. I'm not trying to say this tool doesn't work. I am not sure what I had done wrong bc it seemed as it was going well and the plug came out without an issue. I must have not drilled perfectly or something. Next time I would try doing something else or just bring it to a shop. If you may know how I could have went wrong please let me know.

love how he demonstrates on a cylinder head that's on a bench instead of on an engine 🙄

fk that takeing the head off take the top of the glow pug off and weld the hole up just use 3 plugs job done

I think this one might be worth paying a qualified mechanic. i mean, changing your glow plugs. I try to do just about anything in my car but this one. the risks and the consciences are just too high.

are you kidding ?? where in the hell... in a real life application would you be able to fit this to a engine? insane...

sounds easy but hells no rather pay someone

if your having this problem. might as well send your heads in for a freshening.

That would leave a lot of swarfe in the cylinder

What a nightmare

The only time you can use these types of tools is if the head is off the vehicle. There is literally never any room to drill anything out straight.

where is the laser ? lol

doing this job with the engine on car is not an option and neither for someone who doesn t have exercise using daily a drilling machine 👍 . more exactly it is a useless tool for unprofessionals (hard to use even for does ) and this kit from what i see is incomplete ...

spark plug What the hell is a glow plug

+++++++++++++++ USE W D 40 FIRST +++++++++++++++++++++++++

Useless unless you take head off car create something to save this cost

This is really useless tool ! It broke the middle wire then I have to take the head off trying to push it back from the other side, that took me two days to free the middle of three glow blugs, then I couldn’t take the body of the bloody glow blugs from the head, the third of the set screws gone and pended, it’s just causing more damage ! I’ve watched this video so many times and followed exactly what it says, theoretically it’s a good idea but ... Now after three more days I have to change all the head ! May be what’s happened because it’s a BMW ! The manufacturer of this is worse than the manufacturer of my glow blugs !
