Once again I need a few more tools. This time it is a valve guide seal remover and a timing light. I need the vgsr to replace the valve seals on my f22 head. I went to autozone and got the valve spring compressor tool, but they didnt have the valve guide seal remover and I forgot to ask about a timing light. does anyone know where i could get these tools? I really want to get my car up and running in the next week or so. Modified Madness is only 5 weeks away and I hope to be ready to go by then...

Have you pulled the head to replace the seals? If not is the valve spring compressor you got meant to be used with the head on or off? When I did my seals I had to find a tool truck to get the kind of compressor that lets you replace the seals with the head still on. As for removing the seals I just used a pair of vice grips to carefully pry the seals off.

Yes I pulled the head off because I had a blown head gasket. The spring compressor tool that I have I didnt need to pull the head off, but it was already off. I'll try to use a pair of vice grips to carefully pry the seals off...
