There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Only drawback is that the tool length can make reassembly a bit hard on transversely mounted v6 if there's a lack of space, I ended up using only the lower part of the tool for reassembly on one cylinder head to gain more clearance, but it still worked great. Also used a piece of wood as lever wedged between the firewall and the top of the assembly part of the tool to compress the spring and get the keepers to drop in.
This tool made a huge advantage to getting the job done rather quickly (roughly 3 hours) for my first time. But this tool is also challenging to use, removal of the keepers was very simple. Installing them is a little more of a challenge.
Pushing on the tool with my hands went easier than hitting it with a hammer for installing, but still had trouble several times on the intake valves. They were pointed towards the firewall, couldn't push straight down on them with my hands. Used a prybar to under the cowl to push down on this tool but slipped couple of times which allowed some keepers to take flight (found them luckily).
Also, insiders tip, use some rope and feed it into the cylinder through the spark plug hole, then crank over the engine by hand to hold the valves in the head while removing the springs. And.... the packing says to install the keepers in the tool, then install... doesn't work that way. Put the keepers in the retainer on the spring, then push on them with the tool.
Overall for a generic tool this saves time and money. May have better luck on other engines.
Then I looked at the other smaller tool, it ended up being the smaller collet extractor/installer chucked into the larger striking unit that did the trick. I have no idea why but that combo ended up being the right striking face & right extractor diameter so remove & install on a 16v SR-20 (Nissan) engine. Those eight tilted towards the intake with cylinder head installed are near impossible with a bolt-on spring compressor bar, lever & fixtures bolted to the head. This tool works, you just have to Mix n' Match the strikers & collet remover/installer ends. Saves having to pull the head to finish. What is that worth? I'd say $250. : )

Engine: Honda B18B1
Bought this tool to fix the engine header with the several scratch to the camshaft lobe, holder, etc. due to 12 yr old timing belt failure.
Tool is quick to remove and install the valve spring. The string inner magnet is able to catch the valve keeper consistently.
While installing the valve spring, the valve face (bottom end) needs to hold by something so that it doesn’t move. Otherwise, the valve keeper won’t catch the valve. If the valve move and catch dirt around the valve lips, it will require to redo in order to take out the dirt.
For my 20 year old Acura, I have to remove the ash (minimum carbon) build up at the back of the valve by doing lapping. Therefore I need to perform multiple times against the same valve if it failed water leak test. This tool doesn’t come in handy as the installation involve pressing hard with my arms or with a big hammer. My arms were tiring when doing hour long of manual lapping so I don’t enjoy using it.
It requires the bottom of the valve to be blocked from moving during installing of valve spring. As the working surface is often has dirt due to carbon removal as well as 20 yr of dirt build up in the engine header. Holding the valve while pressing/hammering the tool to install valve spring is tedious.
I will prefer the $20 blue colour tool that screw in and press the valve spring as I can slowly take my time to adjust the valve if it moved. If dirt get between the valve port, I no need to remove it.
Anyway, I will prefer this tool for removal but the blue screw in bracket for installation for repair like mine. If one time installation that had proper setup to hold the valves, then this tool really quick to do the installation as well
The tool is solid and looks to work forever
Having a larger end on the handle might help the user get their weight behind the tool when installing the collets back in. Then again, taller, heavier-set users with more upper body mass will find it relatively easier to lean into the tool when installing the retainers.
The springs within the installation attachment were somewhat gritty but this was eased with some motor oil and rapidly pushing on the sprung tip many times before use.
When installing the collets back into the retainer, valve and spring assembly on the Toyota engine, it’s best to place the collets into the retainer and place the retainer on the valve before using the tool. It doesn’t work if you put the collets on the tip of the installation tool and push down on the retainer, valve and spring assembly.
PLEASE NOTE:
For some reason they call one a metric installer and the other imperial. The sizes are not a conversion so the large installer is MUCH larger than the metric size range listed.
