Default shout out to Tim Ayers

Just a thank you to Tim Ayers for the constant kick in the rear to get an heat Induction tool. Still learning the ropes on it BUT It accomplished the first of two hard to loosen fasteners so far without even removing the intake manifold. It never got the intake grub screw plug as "hot"/glowing red as I thought it would.....maybe I need to hold it there longer than I thought???? BUT it did get it loose within about 5 minutes of using it and NO distortion of color or material it was used on!!!!! PLUS I was able to move it from the front port to the rear vacuum port and use it to there temporarily to run this motor. As I use it for the second, Larger fastener this week-end and have a little more "experience" with it I will post the results on round two, a little "harder" task. Maybe the "larger" diameter intake plug on my Jeep and it being closer to the inner edges of the heat element of the induction toll will produce a quicker, faster result??? BUT for now...


Thanks Tim & Michael Driskell and one or two other for the push to get this needed tool!!!!
