The fuel pump is held into the tank with a retaining lock ring. Most people would take an extension or punch and tap out the ring with a hammer. But that's the wrong way to do it. You could damage the lock ring, or worse, the tank itself. This handy tool is toothed to match the lock ring and takes a standard 1/2 drive ratchet or small extension. Twist the ratchet and the lock ring comes un-done cleanly and smoothly. A hefty tool that pays for itself over and over. Fits most BMWs from 1988-2013. Also has application for MINI and Porsche.

This metal screw ring tightens down to old the top of the fuel pump or fuel filter assembly dependent on model of vehicle.

Together they make this job simple and easy and ensure a tight fit with a new ring. 

Timing systems tend to be a weak point in the world of German automotives. Chains stretch over time, sometimes even snapping, and guides wear down to dangerous levels. This can end up be disastrous as too much slack in the chain can mean a slipping timing chain which could lead to timing issues or even a destroyed cylinder head and damaged pistons.

To prevent this from happening to your Mini's N12-16 engine, a timing chain service kit is usually the best answer, refreshing your timing chain, guides and tensioners. You could take your vehicle to the shop and spend an obscene amount of money for this, or simply purchase one of our timing service kits and this tool to do it yourself at home for significantly cheaper and without the hassles of trying to work with only basic hand tools.

This high quality tool kit from Schwaben enables you to service your vehicles timing system with ease and accuracy.

Tool Kit Includes:

• Camshaft locking blocks
• Flywheel locking pin
• Timing chain tension block
• Upper chain tension locks

When doing work where the mounts and support need to be removed from the engine or transmission having a engine support bar is wise.

•  Two angle chain hooks for safer and more stable chain support 
•  61" long and fully adjustable to any width

• This tool features a dual hook design for holding engine or transmission in place
•  Powder coated for long life and durability

Note: It is important that chains are hooked to both sides of hook, like in photo to insure load is supported evenly.

The MINI Cooper N18 engine found in many R55-R61 models has two major weak points over time, timing chain and timing guides. The timing guides being the most noticeable and damaging can be very expensive to have a shop repair when trying to get back on the road.

This Schwaben kit features everything you need in one case to perform either job or both making timing service easy and accurate.
