A must-have tool for 3.8 engine owners.
Mike✓ Verified Purchase•October 23, 2023
This tool worked awesomely! It is extremely well built. Worked perfectly for tipping a 3.8 engine in a 05 grandprix so I could replace the rear exhaust manifold gasket. Without this tool, I was looking at a $500 shop bill. Worth it's weight in gold.
Must have tool

If you do any work on a Front Wheel Drive vehicle, this should be in your toolbox. Makes working on the back half of the motor near the firewall much easier. Pulls the motor forward to make it easy to reach spark plugs and valve cover gaskets.

Great too does exactly what it claims to do. I have 2 cars with 3.8 GM motors. I used this tool the first time yesterday. It says to put the transmission in neutral. I did the front plugs first. I removed the front engine brackets and then hooked up the tool. As instructed I went to put the transmission in neutral. For the life of me I could get it out of park. My car has a button to push if it ever gets stuck in park. Nothing worked. I have 161,000 miles on this car and its a 1999 grand prix. I never had to use this button and for all the time I owned the car, since new, I never had the transmission get stuck in park. I finally tried tightening the tool to roll the engine a little at a time and then seeing if the transmission would get out of park. On the third try it did and I put it in neutral.
So my suggestion is before hooking up the tool or removing brackets put the car in NETURAL and put on the parking break and save yourself a lot of grief.
The other suggestion I have is to get your self a oxygen sensor socket and remove the sensor which sits right in front of the middle spark plug on the rear of the engine. I had one since I had change the sensor a few years back. On this engine that one plug is a bitch.
Just my experience and if this review can save you some grief all is good.

I'm a technician at a German car dealership, this tool works better than the OE special tool for gaining access to ignition systems on both banks. This tool save me a lot of time
Amazing

Amazing. Makes rotating the engine a breeze and much easier/safer than a ratchet strap
