Lisle 36200 Valve Keeper Remover and Installer, Black, One Size

acostumbrado a remover los retenedores con mi herramienta arcaica ( tipo compresor C ) , esta herramienta me ha ahorrado tiempo al retirar las valvulas y en el reensamblaje posterior , la recomiendo ampliamente.

I've been using the old clamp style spring compressor to remove/install valve springs. This tool makes the job so much quicker. I was able to remove 16 valves in a couple of minutes. Just place the tool and give it a good whack and the keepers stay in the tool instead of falling on the floor. Installing the valve springs is allot easier too. I tried setting up the tool and keepers and gave it a tap with a dead blow hammer. It's a beautiful thing when it works but everything has to be lined up perfectly. I was able to hand press the valve springs in which was okay for stock valve springs. I have a set of performance valve springs that I will try with this tool. I'm hoping the new springs aren't too stiff for this tool to work. One of the best advantages of this tool is that you can remove the valve springs with the head still on the car. But keep in mind that you need to hold the valve in place while the spring is out. If it drops then you are removing the head. Be careful guys!

Worked perfectly though I ha w not tried using it to install the collets yet only removed the valves from my classic mini cylinder head which was easy

Funciona muy bien y buena marca.

This thing works better than I thought. Used it on toyota valve keepers Chevrolet and honda atv. Definitely a must buy
