This tool is of excellent quality. It was used to replace stripped threads on a model airplane engine. The replacement threads allowed for the repair of the button head and my engine is now performing satisfactorily.

Excellent kit without which I would have had to scrap my vintage engine. Very easy to use.

This tool works perfectly and it’s really easy to do. I used in on an OS 75ax which has a standard glow plug and it worked perfect. Very happy.

I don’t normally write reviews but this product saved a beloved engine. Just want to make sure everyone knows that this kit works good on 4 stroke engines and there IS enough clearance between the insert and the exhaust valve. It’s pricey but well worth it for me.
