The problem with kit crack repair stuff is in order to have the polymer "kick" quickly they need to give up flexibility. So they work and get good reviews but end up leaking after the foundation has had a chance to cycle thermally. A good percentage of repairs we go to has had some version of these kits used on them.
It ends up costing the customer more in the end since they are harder to inject and achieve continuity between injection packers.
If you are sure you want to go the diy route. Don't plan on a permanent fix. When a company comes in and injects they may push thier machine to 5000 psi to insure they have filled the entire crack. You can't get that out of a caulking gun. Ties on a foundation are an easy fix. Those compression fittings work for the most part as long as the drill hole is absolutely perfect. So you will need to drill the steel first then follow with a hammer drill.
I tend to through drill and inject a hydrophobic polyurethane to the outside of the tie. If its plugged on the inside you still have water in your wall.
This isn't meant to discourage you doing it yourself. Just to come up with the best way to do it.
Hope that helps
