Overview

Aviation spark plugs have special needs; using a non-standard 7/8" hex, and exhaust manifolds can get in the way of wrench access. A thin-wall socket is necessary for many applications. To ensure compatibility with all makes of plugs including Champion and Tempest, a deep well is called for.

This Aviation Spark Plug Socket meets all these needs, with a combo hex and 3/8" drive for additional flexibility. Pro-quality.

Five stars for now, because I cant just offer a comment without a rating: the one I received on 7/3/2023 appears different from what was shipped in the past, and different from the photo. The one I received is satin-finished, 1-1/8 outside diameter (so thinner-walled than some purchasers described) and it does include a magnet inside the well, which reduces the inside depth to barely 2-3/8. Havent tried using it yet to determine if that affects its fit on Tempest or Champion plugs. Five stars for now, because I cant just offer a comment without a rating.

Perfect fit for removing spark plugs. Total contact with the base and thin walled to clear the chamber walls.

Found out Ive got both Champion and Tempest plugs installed. Confirmed this socket is deep enough to fit both of them where a standard deep socket wont.
