Not a bad spark plug cleaner,
March 23, 2009
By midbass
from Northern Ohio
"The Norther Industrial Spark Plug Cleaner is not a bad little plug cleaner. I have used other spark plug cleaners that cost quite a bit more money and this performed just as well. The unit does not come with instructions but it is not hard to figure out how to use it, even with the coarse sand. I had a fouled plug on a tractor and used this unit to clean it and before long the tractor was hitting on all cylinders again."

Something missing,
March 20, 2009
By deshkaman
from Anchorage, Alaska
"The Northern Industrial Spark Plug Cleaner — 4.2 CFM, 90 PSI seemed to work as expected. I can't stress enough though that " THE TOOL NEEDS SOME BASIC INSTRUCTIONS". I am fairly handy with things and I did figure it out. I am cleaning plugs that go into sno machines "thats what we call them up here" and I have concerns about the different medians and their possible effects on my cylinder walls. The median seemed to pack in around the center area of plug and I had to pick, dig, scrape, etc it all out. No info provided with the median. Also your web site did not mention that the tool comes with median. I ended up purchasing some seperately from another on line service."

"I purchased the spark plug cleaner and have used it several times to recondition spark plugs that are special order items. After seeing and using them, after cleaning, I mentioned it to a freind of mine, and now he uses my spark plug cleaner more than I do."

Excellent cleaner for practically no money,
July 20, 2007
By farmerwannabee
from Rural Pennsylvania
"My old 2 cylinder John Deere engines don't start very well if the plugs aren't in pretty good shape. Since this product was so cheap as to be practically free, I decided to give it a try. I even bought the extra bag of silica free "sand" though I haven't had to add any of it yet.
Most modern engines won't require plug cleaning, but if you, like me, restore or work on antique engines, this is definitely a worthy tool. It is certainly cheaply made, with very rough castings and light duty filter clamp band, but it works easily and performs flawlessly. There are no instructions provided, but the functions are pretty obvious.
I'd rather have a series of plug adaptors to fit various plug sizes instead of the "one size fits all" rubber washer but for this price, it's better than a free lunch and appreciated much more often."

Spark Plug Cleaner,
July 9, 2007
By oldriverking
from Gainesville, Florida
"I was surprised when I saw this on your web site. I had used one of these back in the 50's, and I had no idea they were still being made. This one is actually better than the one I used over 50 years ago. In the brief time I've had this, I've saved over twice the price of the plug cleaner."

July 9, 2007
By Eldeneda1
from Alamogordo, New Mexico
"So far I am not happy with the machine. It came without instructions, and there seem to be no markings on the unit, so I don't know how much sand to put in it, or where. I called Northern Tool and they sent me instructions, but they were contradictory, one page saying to have the switch down to clean, the other page saying to have the switch up to clean, and as to the sand, saying only to put it in the front compartment but still not how much. Also, the button that controls the air sticks and doesn't shut off very well. Otherwise, when I've been able to get it to work, by luck, it does seem to clean my spark plug."
