## Description

The Facom 1/2" Drive Diesel Filter Socket is a specialist tool designed for removing diesel filter elements on 2.0 and 2.2 litre HDI engines without damaging the plastic housing cap. Changing diesel filters is typically required every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometres. To reduce environmental impact, many mechanics now replace just the diesel filter element rather than the entire cartridge. However, removing the filter paper can prove challenging without the correct tooling, as the plastic cap is easily damaged during extraction. This socket is engineered specifically for HDI diesel engines and provides the precise fit needed to safely remove filter elements. The 1/2" drive fitting allows use with standard ratchets and torque wrenches for controlled operation. The tool is compatible with a wide range of vehicle manufacturers including Peugeot, Citroën, Fiat, Lancia, Volvo, Mitsubishi and Ford models fitted with 2.0 and 2.2 litre HDI engines. This makes it an ideal addition to workshop tool collections where diesel filter servicing is routinely performed. Features and Benefits: &bull; Prevents damage to plastic filter housing caps during removal &bull; Compatible with multiple vehicle brands fitted with HDI engines &bull; 1/2" drive fitting works with standard socket tools &bull; Supports environmentally-conscious filter element replacement Specifications: Drive Size: 1/2" Engine Compatibility: 2.0L & 2.2L HDI
