Snap-on tool eases repair of GM fuel pressure sensors
Snap-on’s new 3/8-inch drive 27 mm six-point Fuel Pressure Sensor Socket (A227) is a time-saving tool for the removal of the fuel pressure sensors on GM vehicles.
On GM vehicles, access to the fuel sensors is restricted by the sensor connector and side air intake ports. The sensors could be damaged easily if the proper tool is not used. The new Snap-on A227 socket is thin walled and has a special broach depth to give service technicians better access to the fuel pressure sensor.
“Our goal with every Snap-on tool is to find effective ways to increase the productivity and efficiency of our customers so jobs don’t take up more of their time than they should,” says Scott Amundson, product manager for Snap-on. “Customer feedback we received helped us develop the new A227 socket. It is specifically designed to help technicians repair fuel pressure sensors on GM vehicles more quickly and easily than before.”
The A227 socket removes GM fuel pressure sensors without difficulty on a number of 2007-2011 models, including the Cadillac CTS and STS; the Buick Allure, Enclave and LaCrosse; and the Chevrolet Camaro, Cobalt, HHR, Traverse and Acadia.
