Trying to replace the valve seals on my D15B7
There is this tool that my grand pa was telling be about that threads into the spark plug hole and allows you hookup a compressed air hose to it. this in return pushes on the valves and prevents them from falling down into the combustion chamber.
Has anyone heard of this tool and do they know where i could get one?
If you havent heard about this do you know any way of changing the valve seals without taking off cylander head
thanks

it's not really a tool.If you have a compression/leakdown tester, use the hose that screws into the spark plug socket and connect it to your air hose/compressor.

Just keep air pressure in the cylinder as to not allow the valves to fall. Use a spring compressor to compress and remove (there are several styles available), and then you can replace your seals from there. There is no need to remove the cylinder head (in case you do it is very easy).

You could also keep the block at TDC for each seal you do and that would only drop the valve about half way and gives you enough space to put the seal on and pull it back up with a magnet.
