FAQs
What types of diesel engines is this set suitable for?
This set is designed for common diesel engines where specific injector line sizes (12mm to 19mm) are used. It is suitable for a broad range of commercial and occasional-use applications, but always confirm compatibility with your specific engine model.
Can I use these sockets with an impact wrench?
While the sockets are made of durable chrome vanadium steel, they are not specifically rated for impact wrenches. For best results and to prevent premature wear or damage, it is recommended to use them with manual ratchets or breaker bars.
How should I store the set?
The set comes with a blow-molded case. Store each socket in its designated spot within the case to keep them organized, protected from dust and damage, and easily accessible.
Are these sockets deep enough for all injector lines?
The sockets are designed to accommodate standard diesel injector line fittings. The depth should be sufficient for most common applications. If you encounter a line with an unusually long fitting, you may need a specialized extension or socket.
What is the warranty on this set?
Please refer to the manufacturer's warranty information provided with your purchase for details on coverage and duration.
How do I clean the sockets?
Clean the sockets with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use to remove any grease, dirt, or fuel. Ensure they are completely dry before returning them to the storage case to prevent corrosion.
Troubleshooting
Socket does not fit injector line.
Verify you are using the correct socket size for the specific vehicle's injector line fitting. Consult your vehicle's service manual if unsure. Ensure no debris is obstructing the fitting.
Socket feels loose on ratchet drive.
Ensure the 1/2" drive socket is fully seated onto the 1/2" drive of your ratchet or extension. Check for any damage or wear on both the socket's drive opening and the tool's drive.**
Difficulty loosening a seized injector line.
Apply a penetrating oil to the fitting and allow it to soak. Ensure you are using a quality 1/2" drive breaker bar for maximum leverage. If the line still won't budge, seek professional assistance to avoid damaging the injector or cylinder head.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
