CT0998 3pc Mechanics Stethoscope Set – 350mm Metal Probe | Flexible Vinyl Tubing | Super Sensitive Ear Pieces | Ideal for Locating Engine Block Faults

Works very well,got to the bottom of my noise issue.

Good value

This is not something you will be using everyday, if you were going to use one of these everyday all day you would probably be better off spending a lot more money.For occasional use it is fine . The complaint about being very tight on the ears is correct but I think the spring is made this way to reduce package size (or for people with heads the size of a tennis ball) . Easy fix, pull of the rubber hose and bend the spring by hand until it fits without too much pressure = 2 minutes of your time.

I remember buying one of these from Snap on about 25 years ago and paying much more for it than this one, I don't remember it being any better.This is ideal to pinpoint noises coming from your engine or any mechanical component that is making an unknown noise. The thin probe allows you to home in on the source of the issue and this device is infinitely preferable to holding a screwdriver to your ear and putting against an engine.Just be careful not to get the probe caught in any rotating components as it will give you a right shock if it whips the stethoscope from your head. Always be careful around running machinery.Thumbs up from me. A useful addition to the toolbox.

It’s a cheap bit of kit and you can tell. The build quality is dodgy. But for what you pay it works. Helped me diagnose a faulty injector, rumbling bearing, knackered tappers. Has it saved me money and ball ache yes. For rare users it’s a worthwhile buy.

Useful

An excellent piece of kit at a very good price. A very happy customer

The media could not be loaded. Cheap plastic piece is like a baby’s rattle, save your money and shop about. There’s much better out there at a few pound more that will last longer than the 10 minutes mine did, I only screwed the probe into the piece then it fell apart.
