What you do different in new video?

[@DarkZeroNemesis1]

Oi why you posting fake shit your fishing bruh.

[@Alan_Hans__]

Looks like the newer version has been deleted :( This version is great. Would have been nice to see what you had done that was different/better.

[@FINDITFIXITRESTOREITBUILDIT]

@Alan H was just filmed with a better camra and better explanations to what to do. I can't find the video on my page I'm not sure where it has disappeared to but I never deleted it.

[@Stoneybolagna]

Very innovative; people like yourself make the world go 'round and are indispensible in hard times; keep it up.

[@MADMODS]

Thanks (",)

[@GeckoTDFarg]

Good tutorial - I used I few times - First, use "Sintetic" rope like him - Don't leave dirt and it's more difficult to have a knot - Then the part of the zip ties, buy good ones or just buy a "Valve spring compressor" it's a cheap tool and very effective for hard springs.- Move the piston with the hand, and then you can put it in first Gear, to prevent go down again, when you are working in the valves doing force down.- When you finish, move the piston and then remove the rope.- Then always check the timing usually it's not going to move because you don't remove the belt, but it's double-check and VERY important, check the valve clearance, after finish in d16y8 are for example 0.20 mm for intake and 0.25 for exhaust.- If everything it's fine, just enjoy!

[@gravelbags2479]

Looks so easy and yet terrifying at the same time

[@gregneilsen2967]

That looks ingenious, it was going to cost $40 to $85 for a tool that I would never use again. I have checked out a few stem seal videos and yours is the best. I will give it a go today, thanks!

[@jasonbentley2819]

Just want to say a big thank you. I just finished changing my stem seals today after following your diy instructions. I couldn't use the cable tie tip because my springs were too small to compress with just cable ties so I used a spring compressor to do that but I loved your tip about the magnetic socket and metal mallet. It worked beautifully. Thanks :) tell you what though, I have a D15 and changing 16 seals is so time consuming!

[@whitenight9988]

best video iv seen on changing valve seals with just run of the mill tools,

[@110445p]

This is a great video. Especially the use of a magnet to get the retainers out. Thank you.

[@denisohbrien]

Actual genious, I have all the right kit to do this in situ in work in minutes, but for your average fellow doing this on the driveway this saves the cost of all those tools . Bit more time consuming but a productive way to spend a lazy afternoon and save some dough, nice one. And no need to disturb the timing belt. Or inlet exhaust and head gaskets.

[@anthonywelch5167]

Just used this technique on my 1998 Honda accord 2.3l vtec. AWSOME, I had the valve stem seals replaced in the time it would usually take to remove the head. Great video. Thanks.

[@doridore1234]

Awesome man I'm also looking to do this in my F series accord, glad to hear it worked! Just to confirm, you don't have to remove the cam gear or camshaft to do this?

[@Richie65afc]

Brilliant video. Never thought about this. You can learn so much of other people. Thanks for uploading this.

[@ricktouch5729]

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn,... The more I THINK I know the more I realize I don't know sh*t. This man is badass

[@MADMODS]

THE ROPE IS USED TO HOLD THE VALVES UP IN THE HEAD. YOUR TAKING THE RETAINERS AND SPRINGS OFF TO GET TO THE SEALS WITHOUT THE ROPE THE VALVES WOULD DROP INTO THE CLYNDER. YOU DO ALL 4 VALVES WITH IT IN THE CLYNDER THEN REMOVE THE ROPE AND USE IT AGAIN IN THE NEXT ONE! PEOPLE STOP ASKING WHATS THE ROPE FOR!

[@bbearhug]

I figured it out after you cranked the head back up. I don't have any videos uploaded so I don't know if this is possible but I would just edit your description if you can. Thanks for the video!

[@blitzuddin7878]

some car has valve seals under the camshaft does this mean I have to put the camshaft back on each blocks I do to compress the rope on everyblocks ?

[@kevinhancock4064]

If noone knows what the rope is for maybe they shouldn't be doing it lol

[@genefoad9146]

Brilliantly simple and effect! Everything explained. Used this on a VW Passat 2.0 B4 year 2002. Thank you for posting this.

[@silverspout4791]

What a great way to do the valve springs.Thanks for your video

[@deltabravo5719]

really stellar cable tie and pliers trick! THANK YOU for my life!

[@vsvnrg3263]

i wouldnt have believed the cable tie spring compression trick until i saw it. might i suggest that it is important to ensure the valve spring is at the top of the valve stem so those little collets/retainers dont go into orbit when you cut the cable ties.

[@JLUDE01]

I had my D16 head off because I had a bad headgasket but I'm going to use this cable tie trick since I have no valve spring tool. Great idea, I have unlimited cable ties.

[@athalfridhu]

Use security glasses and a spring compressor tool for 10$. Valve springs are tipically rated from 200 to 300 lbs, and you don't want that exploding on your face when cutting a zip tie...

[@josebarrios2972]

This was awesome video and technique for those of us with limited tools

[@jimcouzens4797]

What a great idea. I was trying to use a HF spring compressors and having problems as it kept slipping off my Kawasaki spring. Keep up the good work.

[@jimcouzens4797]

Seems like HF spring compressors are great for cars but do not appear to be designed for cycles or small engines.

[@elcasquito]

Thank you so much for this video.Learned a lot! I am just a shade tree mechanic, DIY. I was able to tackle this on my 02 Accord. I was able to find a valve compression tool at a flea market, so I used that. Other than that I did exactly what you did and it worked

[@oliverhaines1716]

I like how this was in my recommendations because the title is close to valve steam sales

[@mikevestibularman]

DUDE AWESOME ! SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE!!! Im so happy i found this. Thanks man.

[@Tippey764]

He feed it down into the cylinder when the cylinder was at BDC, he then cranked it up to TDC which compressed the rope into the valves, he did this so the valve doesn't fall when he removes the valve spring keepers and retainers.

[@mikeedjruffkat8498]

awesome mine are leaking cause i didnt have money to do mine when i did my head gasket and all other seals and i bought them at honda so i paid out the ass for mine and was heat broken when it smoked my homie said the vavle seals where new but he lied lol will be doing this on my 95 accord f22a6 very soon will let you know how she does and how hard accord was compaired to civc you just saved me buying a new head gasket at honda and intake too that a good bit this is genius THANK YOU VERY MUCH

[@potardo9851]

Thank you. I have a vtec head I'm upgrading my non vtec 94 accord with and I don't have any compressor tools to help putting it back together even on the table. This cable tie trick is good stuff. This also gives me a way to be able to replace my seals if need be down later the road without the whole head off.

[@s.c.o.t.t.7743]

Wow thank you for your technique

[@RJSoftware2000]

I can see where if situation where real tight quarters, no space for spring compressor this trick would be quite useful. A+..! Subscribing now.

[@neil_digital]

Some really good ideas

[@MegaDan5000]

the bit with the cable ties is gold

[@axenz1]

Very good technique, I never think about it. Thanks for the video :)

[@j.d.7321]

Awesome cable tie method!

[@kominmin8719]

very good idea. Thanks

[@GamingNinja132]

Doing this to mine rn and didn't have to worry about the string part, just turned the cylinders I was working on to TDC and the pistons caught the valves from falling

[@jepc1210]

Thanks a ton friend, would buy you a beer over that one

[@ronsinson1989]

Thanks and good job! I'm gonna be replacing mine ad the retainers on my s2000

[@d0yougetme]

awesome video...genius use of cable ties!

[@ohhailkingbobby1073]

never thougt of he rope method but this seems quite useful if ur not changig a headgasket..saves time and money

[@dilynarendse5720]

thank you for this video🙂🙂🙂

[@lilletizz]

Hah, awesome! I just joinked off all the 16 valves in under 2 minutes. Thanks!

[@juicevang8436]

Wow! Just what i needed. Thanks man u just got a new subscriber

[@nibbit1969]

cable ties !!!! What a winner!!!!

[@tonyd.2705]

fucking genius!! I wish I would have watched this before I bought a worthless spring compressor tool that I had to fight to make work.

[@stakeout2]

Very well done mate .

[@MADMODS]

Yes put the rope in each time and turn the engine over by hand to hold up the valves befor removing the spring retainers.

[@FarringtonDS]

This needs to be highlighted in your commentary MM - thanks, was exactly what I needed to do a small engine job using same theory! :0)

[@MADMODS]

@@FarringtonDS I made this video many years ago on a old phone and was my first KZbin video upload. I have redone this video with better explanation but its lost in KZbin land and this video comes out on top . Check out my other videos or the pined comment to see the newer version. Glad this video helped you out.

[@uptownsamcv]

good video, this is definitely going to come in handy...

[@FOSTERSFARMGARAGETV]

Impressive! Thank you sir!

[@MADMODS]

Glad i could help.

[@WeaponsAndBacon]

Great informative vid will be doing this soon 👍

[@pilsnrimgaard2507]

Kind of rustic method but it works. Good job!

[@tanzo2000]

Thank you, God Bless you!!

[@christopherlarocque4962]

Excellent video!

[@MADMODS]

thanks

[@jasonbentley2819]

Thanks for the video. Really informative and I'm going to give it a try this week. Just wondering, the valve retainers, how do they go back on? Do they just clip on? Thanks

[@lapd1989]

Nice vid bro!!!! Cool things to learn!!!

[@boringsoaring]

Thanks!!!

[@MorrisBroadwood]

Very neat method.

[@MADMODS]

Thanks a lot

[@ayman171819]

You are very smart, really that's help me a lot!

[@mrfixit-sm6cf]

very innovativelll bravo!!

[@mirelboca3881]

Smart job.

[@elgoofy4]

Good video I'm doing this to my civic

[@carlosjaramillo6259]

Great vídeo bro, thanks!

[@titorojas333]

Good video excellent for single heads. When the valve steams are bad besides a smoking muffler what other sings should we look into? My Integra is burning oil and I definitely smell it more when I drive long distance. Second question when the valve guides are bad what are the sings when it's on drive?

[@jesusgutierrez1446]

very ingenious

[@billydagenham]

Great stuff!

[@MADMODS]

Once the ropes in the cylinder you can do all 4 seals in minutes saves the time of removing the head and saves costs of new gaskets. Took me 2 hours to do all 16valves and put it back together so now to long.

[@gravelbags2479]

The garage said I'd have to skim my head of I got them to fix my stem seals, If I did it myself could I just replace the gaskets without skimming the head?

[@DavidMartinez-ot4go]

Goog job, good idea, thanks

[@Shahidawan14220]

Good work

[@johnnygarcia7769]

your the man dude

[@lowkeybeatspg]

helpful, thanks.

[@zaiharm5796]

Brilliant mate...

[@mikeanderson1139]

Brilliant

[@jimcouzens4797]

I want to try this tomorrow. You made it look so easy. What size is the magnet in your spark plug socket and where did you got it.

[@BrickWilbur2369]

Nice tip!!!!

[@vincentlee2460]

Compressed air into the spark plug hole is the best.

[@angelsantiago9575]

You are the beast mate! Like us here in Puerto Rico! Lol

[@abednasr2284]

thanks

[@stephenwgreen78]

great workaround for all the expensive tools used for these jobs. I think I paid 80$ for a valve spring compressor lol ...socket & magnet/zip tie looks better😁 mine's a dohc so had to take the cam shafts out to get to the springs.

[@predatorinc9924]

dude unless your a professional mechanic go to harbor freight. My spring compressor was 12 dollars. plus all their hand tools come with a life time warranty.

[@MihaiViteazulVoievod]

excelent !!!

[@eenkoornnedeerland7367]

well done! do I need to replace somthing more if I do that?

[@DriftKingDonuts]

Nice work :)

[@MMasod]

Tq sir for the vedio.

[@tonycarrillo4491]

do you need a 17mm tool to get the pistons to tdc so the valves won't fall in?or can you just turn the crank with your hand?

[@jcraw39]

@rodney Carr. That was the intake side. Pay attention to the spark plug wells.

[@crmercer6407]

GENIUS

[@aca192maric]

that is bad ass man thanks

[@mainstreet9120]

smart. Thank you.

[@DahCall]

Do you need to adjust tappets to spec after the job?

[@based1781]

Awesome

[@beaulethbridge3464]

Genius!

[@coachwilson5967]

I have a 2002 Altima 2.5 and its consuming oil like crazy. I replaced the valve cover and gasket with a new OE Nissan cover. The spark plug well had oil accumulating before the cover change. all nice and dry now. Have you ever heard of changing the valve guide seals with the head on? The car is NOT smoking and I think the oil is coming from an exhaust valve guide which is slamming the oil into the exhaust...unburned and has fried the catalytic converter. I do not want to replace the converter until I have the oil leak (valve guide seals) fixed. Do you know if the QR25 motor valve guide seals would/could be done this way?

[@mrman3232]

do the valve clearances need to be adjusted after taking off the rockers?

[@raft5205]

Very clever way to compress the valve springs! not sure about the rope though

[@Sandhill1988]

I love how everybody shows the job being done when the engines out of the vehicle. How about showing us the job with it still installed in the vehicle.

[@MADMODS]

it's in the car in my videos! engine is in place with minimal removed.

[@parales03]

How about for a 97 chevy suburban Lt 4x4 5.7L. Would a screwdriver work if I put it in through the sparkplug holes.

[@josuesolera9770]

Hi Crazyvtec1, is the same at the k20z3?I can do it my selft with dual springs?

[@mikeerdman4831]

Very impressive. Will the same process work on a push rod v8.

[@nathanielhernandez5104]

What kind of rope would you recommend or what rope did you use?

[@jazielbarahona9372]

Well that's good stuff

[@AngelGomez-un3dq]

What is the rope for and howndo you kno when you fed enough into the cylinder
