Your cart is empty.Removes Broken Heater Hose Couplers. Drive the tool into the broken coupler. The splines cut their way into the coupler, allowing you to turn it out with a 5/8" socket or wrench.

Tool works as designed.to use properly it must be driven with a hammer which is difficult based on location of heater core coupler on rear of intake. Get it seated, put a 5/8 socket on it with a ratchet and git er done.lol ,any other way you're killing yourself.

1995 C1500 - The 'rear' heater hose "quick connect" broke off (it is very porous "pot metal" - the replacement from Dorman is steel). This Lisle 62200 tool helped a great deal. (I still had some threads 'deeper in' which I needed to chisel out. Be sure to vacuum up any loose particles and/or flush the engine block (put your garden hose in the thermostat opening, water will come out the quick connect opening).Key Point: Hammer the Lisle 62200 tool *all the way in* (all the teeth will be biting) before attempting to loosen it with a breaker bar. It might be difficult to hammer in straight, but it will eventually go in up to the hilt. It may be helpful to temporarily shift harnesses and brackets out of your way (if you are doing it with the manifold on the engine). While waiting for your order to arrive, periodically apply penetrating oil around the broken-off threads. Note that the diameter of the Lisle 62200 is smaller than the threads in the manifold - you won't hurt anything if you correctly drive the tool all the way in as designed.Remember that the intake manifold you are working with is aluminum (relatively soft), not steel - be gentle and take your time. If the manifold threads are chewed up any when you are done, wrap a generous amount of PTFE thread sealant tape (Teflon tape, in the plumbing department) around the threads of the new "quick connect" (or the "threaded connector" if you decide to go that route - if so you don't need the 'aluminum' hoses).An "NPT Tap, 1/2-14" can also be helpful, but be very careful with the soft aluminum threads on the intake manifold.

This device just rounded out the hole. I hammered it in all the way to the shoulder, but the pot metal remains of the heater hose quick disconnected was just too corroded to hold together while I tried to unthread it. Instead, this tool just carved a new circular hole. I ended up have to chisel some material out then re-establish the threads using a 1/2-14 NPT tap. (Note: My first review got rejected by Amazon because I detailed the very weird shipping track that occurred which had the part arriving locally then, before being delivered, starting over from way across the country. What's up with that?)

TLDR: While I did not use this tool, Lisle tools are top quality and well made.This product is as described and appears to be well made, but I have not taken it out of the package. I borrowed one that is similar or even the exact dimensions / size of a borrowed one, and I believe it would work as intended so long as the the threaded portion of the heater hose is not too far corroded. Due to the circumstances of my project, if the tool I borrowed was manufactured to be slightly wider at its largest diameter, I may have been able to remove the worn out connector. So while a similar or even perhaps same tool did not work as I needed it to, the tool did not mechanically fail. Lisle tools for me, have always been top quality. See below for further details.I borrowed a similar tool after purchasing the Lisle 62200, while waiting on the 62200 to arrive, intending to keep the repair moving forward. Unfortunately the inside diameter of the corroded heater hose connection was slightly bigger than the largest part of the tool diameter so while it was a tight fit requiring heat and a hammer to seat it, there was not enough material left for the tool to bite into, and we were not successful in removing the corroded coupler, this is not any fault of the tool, the heater core coupler is 29 years old and was just to far gone. I'm told that the tool that was borrowed has been used successfully in the past, but it did not work for me.

Does nothing but hog out the hole. Hacksaw blade to cut through to threads in 4 spots. Sharp screwdriver and hammer to chisel out remaining fitting and Bob's your uncle.
Do this fit my 1982 C10 pickup

Good product but when you're using this make sure that you put plenty of grease on it and pound it in Don't be afraid

Got tired of trying to remove heater line broken connections with pliers or jamming and tapping with a screw driver. It was cheaper than all of the repairs I had to do after not using the right tool.If you need one you need this one.

I needed to replace the intake manifold gasket in my 1993 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD and the notorious aluminum fitting for the heater hose was seeping so I new it needed to be removed and upgraded. Of course I tried to turn the 40 year old fitting out and it sheared right off, so before removing the intake manifold I pounded the extractor in tight and it turned out just as expected. I had seen and read about the nightmares of removing the broken piece, and fortunately I was able to avoid any problems what-so-ever. This tool works just as promised and met my expectations, and needs, perfectly.

I assume it works, I had to do the repairs before I got the part. But it’s there if I ever need it

When changing fitting for heater on a vortek motor this makes the repair fool proof

The tool is fine. The broken fitting it's made to remove doesn't always come out in one piece.
