Valve Spring Compressor Tool Drawing/Dimensions.
Hi,
I'm a born-again Honda-Tech user.. just got back into a Honda after much messing about in other cars.
Thing is i bought a Civic Aerodeck for 500 uk pounds, B18C4 engine, burnt exhaust valve, replaced it, re-fitted head, all good.. but the valve stem seals are leaking a bit. I would have changed them when the head was off but it was a nightmare getting the keeprs back in place using the wrong valve spring compressor - so i never bothered.
Anyway i'm wondering if any of you kind, helpful type have any dimensions/drawings for the tool that allows you to compress the valve springs with the ehad still on, filling the cylinder with 100psi or so of compressed air.
I would buy one but as i'm in the UK it would take a good week or two to get one delivered plus it looks very easy to construct.
Any info, pics, drawings etc would be appreciated as i plan on changing my seals at the weekend.
Kev.
