Spill free funnel for radiator coolant/anti-freeze maintenance
Digital inspection camera for looking at hard to reach areas such as aircon vents, engine pistons via spark plug hole, etc

non-contact IR digital thermometer for diagnosing radiator and catalytic converter clogs and everything that deals with temperature differences...
6-12V digital battery charger for battery maintenance
lead acid load tester (aka the TOASTER), i dont have a digital battery tester because most of Philippine battery does not show its CCA rating on the specs

torque wrenches and its digital counterpart for making things stay in its place (i just hate it when mechanics don't follow the correct torque specs, engineers didn't waste their time finding the breaking point of screws and its negative effects)

still debating myself kung kukuha nga ba ako nung battery tester kay deeco. us brand (pero made in china i think)..carparts ata iyon.
may i know sir kung saan kayo bumili? parang kilala ko kasi (kung dito ha). kaso abroad ata kayo bumili.
btw, tool lover din ako. have collected a variety of hand and power tools ranging from auto, metal and woodworking. both electric and pneumatic. pero kokonti pa rin yung koleksyon ko kung tutuusin kumpara sa ibang DIYer.
kuha ka rin ng welding machine mo sir kung wala ka pa. magandang matutunan din iyon. kumbaga blackbelter ka na kung nagkaganon. hehe
