I just ordered this, does anyone have any experience with it? It looks pretty straight forward and easy to use..

I have never used that one in particular but it looks fairly easy to use and straight forward as you mentioned. Just get an extension magnet to pull the keepers out and you are golden. I have this compressor and that one looks like it would even be eassier to use.

I had the same exact thread about that product. I love it to death one of my favorite tools, besides my snapon ratchet :-P

 

I have that; it works great. With it I was able to swap valve springs in < 40 min once I had the cams out. Make sure you thread the bolts through the holes a few times to get paint shavings out before you put it on your head (don't want those getting in the head). The nice thing about that tool is that you can do the job with the head on the car.

It also ships with what has become one of my 'essential' tools -- a little magnetized screwdriver you use to handle the keepers. It also has 1001 other uses.

 

i have it too.
works pretty good buy the regular valve spring compressor work pretty good too with a cut spark plug socket

 

Freakin' awesome, it should be here this week sometime with the rest of my goodies. I just received my cams today =]

 

yes that tool is THE tool for valve springs best ive ever used

 

works great, used it in and out of the car

 

Right on! I just got mine in the mail..

dumb question, but why do you have that hose inyour spark plug hole?

Im about to swap out cams/valvesprings/camgears if you have some tips that would be helpful

thanks.

 

you need to pump pressurized air into the cylinder to keep the valves from falling into the cylinder.....

 

That's the exact same one I have and I love it. Its versital and is great when you need to get into tight areas w. Most hondas. Also another good one is just a c style. I and normally change out valve seals in about 30 min a side

 

This looks a lot easier to use then the one from autozone lol.

 

Bringing back an old thread here, but I used this tool a couple weeks ago and it was pretty simple. Although, I didn't pressurize the cylinders, I just let the valvesfall on pistons 1 and 4, rotated the engine and did the same with 2 and 3. Just some info for people who don't have a compressor or the correct hose.

 

just got the same one as well actually using it right now and its working wonders!

 

I got one a while back and it is one of the best tools that I have bought so far.

 

I was going to get that tool today, till it said VTEC only. He says he's working on a new one for LS motors, something about it being higher. Now I don't know what to use to do the job if my head is still on. =\

Any help?

 

you can use a regular on the car spring compressor on ls heads.

 

I used to use the giant c-clamp tool but this tool you can have all the valves done in less than an hour than with the old tool I used to use which took 2 hours.lol..I love using this.Its quick and way more easier with no hassels.

 

the c-clamp style compressors work best. its simple and quick. i can take apart a head in like 20 min with it.

 

this is what I have used for the past 11yrs on many engines: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item....re&dir=catalog

i just pressurize the cylinder and place the silver piece over retainer, give it a tap with a rubber hammer and it sucks the keepers right up without the chance of dropping one since it has a VERY strong magnet. to install just place the longer end of the black adapter into the aluminum piece, put the keepers on the retainer your installing and push it in with the tool by hand. hella easy to do and ive done it at the track once on my one friends da b16 in no time. I use it all the time and my friend Harry Sohn from DelSohn Racing introduced the tool to me and loved it ever since

 

i just got mine.Easy to use, good tool to have.
