Carlyle Spark Plug Socket T- Bar Swivel 16mm (CWSP1621M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CWSP1621M

A 16mm spark plug socket built onto a T-bar with a universal swivel joint at the head. The swivel lets it reach plugs set at an angle or behind other parts in a confined engine bay, and the coated T-bar handle gives a two-handed grip for steady, even turning.

Good to know

• Will it fit my plugs? It is 16mm, one of the commonest plug hex sizes; car plugs are mostly 14mm, 16mm or 20.8mm hex, with 18mm on some, so check yours first.
• How do I use the swivel without damage? Crack the plug loose with the socket as straight as you can, because a swivel joint at an angle loses effort and can slip.
• How should new plugs go in? Start them by hand with the engine cold to avoid cross-threading, then tighten to the plug or engine maker's figure.
