Valve Installation Tool
I am looking for that specialty tool that compresses the valve springs when installing/removing the valves.. I've attached a youtube video showing the tool (at the 3 min/38 sec mark).. What is the proper name of this tool & the second tool.. and where can I get one?

Here's another very commonly used style.

Re: Valve Installation Tool
Thats the one we use think its a "KD" from Napa. You want the one with the star wheel
the ratchet ones maybe good for a model T or A where there is room, but not for a V8 its tight quarters down there. Last edited by big job; 01-04-2019 at 08:25 AM. |

Using the KD 918 on a G motor you need an adapter between the clamp and the deck to compensate for the bigger inlet valve, |
