Of course unless the motor is out, a slide hammer isn't happening. I locked a pair of vise grips on the tool after I got it turned in as far as I thought it needed to go, gave it a squirt of KROIL, and gently tapped it with a hammer knocking it out, then side to side, seen alittle movement, and boom, knocked it out. I seen the Cadillac version of this tool on another site for 80 bucksso I call this a deal

Worked for what I needed it for first time needing one and probably want ever need it again but it works

A most need kit for mechanics

Worked amazing, a must have tool if you ever need to extract a broken dipstick tube. Almost unbelievable how easy this tool did in 2 minutes on what I had been working on for days!

Great kit worth the money and the wait.

I broke off the dipstick tube on my '67 AMC 343 flush with the block. I expected I would need to drop the pan which implies pulling the engine or dismembering the front suspension and cross support. (Oh joy.)Instead, I found this. Had no idea it would work but took a chance. I used the Ford tool. Screwed it in quite tight. Gave it a wack. Magic! The bottom part of the dipstick tube appeared in my hand.In my case, instead of pulling the exhaust manifold so that I could use their adapter and a slide hammer I screwed on the adapter but then positioned a small prybar such that I could hit it with a 3 lb hammer from below. The slide hammer adapter would probably have been a great fallback but I did not easily have the room for it.The tool seems nicely made and worked. The threads on the tool were still nicely sharp after my one use.

Spent hours trying different lag bolts and self tapping screws to get a dipstick tube out of an AMC 360. Ordered this tool, less than 1 minute the broken tube was out of the block!
