Description
Glow Plug Removal Tool Kit, Duramax | 2001 - 2016
Glow plug removal can seem straightforward, but if the incorrect tools are used, the chances of breaking off a glow plug or damaging the cylinder head are greatly increased. The Merchant Automotive Glow Plug Removal Tool Kit includes the same tools we have used in house at Merchant Automotive: an air hammer with an adapter that provides the hammering effect needed to loosen a stubborn glow plug, and a 12mm removal socket machined to a specific depth. It fits 2001-2016 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD trucks with the 6.6L Duramax (LB7, LLY, LBZ, LMM and LML) and 2006-2016 Chevy Express and GMC Savana vans with the 6.6L Duramax (LLY, LMM and LGH).
Can I use an impact wrench instead? We don't recommend it. An impact wrench often twists off the glow plug rather than breaking it loose.
