HOW TO USE A VALVE SPRING TESTER

HOW TO USE A VALVE SPRING TESTER. Once in a while, I get a suggestion for a video that I just have to do. This is one of those videos. In this video, I will show you tips and tricks for how to use a valve spring tester correctly. I have years of experience and some tools I have fabricated myself that i will use to teach you the importance of and the correct way to test valve springs on a valve spring tester.
As always, I appreciate your feedback and suggestions, I welcome your comments and ask you to like and subscribe this video and this channel. You can also hit the notification button, so you always know when I have something else to share.

Perfectly explained, also shown that the spring testers need a calibration spring, that i bet that not everyone has used or have.

Great video as always. any tips how to measure valve spring height on import heads that have small diameter springs and are deep in hole so there are no room for regular spring height micrometer or snap gauge ? I have made custom tool for that, but its not very accurate.

[@MrDanielSoliz]

No tip there, that’s always I hard one to figure out.

[@steelblackface]

I rebuilt my Duramax motor and after a few days of driving one of my rocker bridge got dislodge. I reinstalled it and set the valve lash and it again. I suspect that I might have a bad spring. Any thought. Will a floating valve cause this? I didnot check the springs and I reused them. My motor has over 300k miles on it.

[@MrDanielSoliz]

Was anything just done live a valve job or mill?

[@steelblackface]

@@MrDanielSoliz no nothing of that sort. The valves were removed and we're hand lapped with grinding compound. No machinery was used.

My dad would say your cars and motor are just like your women you abuse either one they will leave you on the side of the road . And if your buddy takes either one out and throws a rod in em one you gonna be pissed

Today's youth expect tools to be an "end all" for them. They have completely forgotten that tools are an extension of personal skills. IE: how do you break a socket?
