OK, I think I get it now. For standard hex head bolts it’s a deep or shallow socket. Or an impact socket. For Etorx the bigger the bolt, the taller the head gets. Which requires a steep taper. So for the large tall Etorx I may as well buy one offs from hazet. The medium size I can get the Capri...

Thanks. Watching an Amazon video review of a Tekton Etorx set, the reviewer showed how the Tekton set only went about halfway down the taller head Etorx like this pic and was wobbly, but his “Hazet” 900S-E20 fit perfect. Hazet is German and expensive but Amazon does sell individual sockets. Are...

This is an example of bolt on the Cherokee I need to get off. The caliper bracket bolt has a tall head. A lot of these sets would only grab the top half this bolt. So do I need a kit with a deeper taper at the end? Or does it not matter?

So Capri tools is referring to Etorx as “star”? That’s the same thing?

I notice some Etorx are flat, some tapered. Is Does this explain why some Etorx/Torx plus sockets are flat on the end, some are tapered or concave? To accommodate the head height? Can I use one for both?

For example. What is a female Etorx?? 😂

I don’t have enough tools in the toolbox to work on a jeep Cherokee KL. Looking at the descriptions of tools online I see the following. Etorx Female Etorx External Torx Torx Torx plus EP torx plus E torx plus A few more names with sockets that look similar. Some are flat. Some are concave...

I tried squeezing the ring with knipex pliers that are smooth and won’t rough up the ring. Seems better so far. Thanks all

I never gave it much thought until I noticed the dedicated power cord used to charge and maintain the Escalade in storage was getting distorted. It’s a batteryminder 1500 connected to the wall outlet in the garage with whatever gauge that cord that is. I’ve never seen a cord do that before...

I have impact sockets for the 1/2” Milwaukee. I was hoping I could use the smaller Hercules 3/8 with all the regular sockets I have. I wasn’t sure if there was a difference on how it was going to fit.

I have a Milwaukee 1/2 impact but I wanted something smaller so I purchased the HF Hercules 3/8. I really like the auto mode. Very balanced and quiet. Spins bolts off fast, but then slows down perfectly. Surprisingly quiet. But… I’m tortured by that small ring on the tip getting sockets...

Thanks!

I would think a lower efficiency filter would be a safer choice for longer intervals because it is less likely to block flow or go into bypass as it loads up and becomes more efficient. A high-efficiency filter loads up quickly and has the potential to become a bottleneck sooner. Why is that wrong?

Well, it’s always been fuzzy by design. And where is the hole? I don’t see it.

I wonder if that would work on my 26 HP craftsman

It’s possible it was defective. inevitably there’s going to be a bad one no matter what brand

Can you add a reason possibly?

I made the assumption that there was a typo and this is what he actually meant

That’s what it was doing. After less than an hour the red back light went out which means it’s in maintenance mode. I guess it was figuring out if the battery need to charge, determined that it didn’t and stopped.
