[@jasoncruz3237]

hello Kalsingh11 i did this method on my clk 350 for me the stem seals when i slowly pushed them on i could feel them pop in place but they was a 1-2mm gap but the seal wouldnt go any futher, with all 24 was the same. anychance to get in contact with you, im from south east uk

The reason that valve moving with spring is because the rope was not at correct location and support the valve as it should

[@scud69er]

You didn't need to use the rope if you have a compressor. In the kit, you showed with the spring compressor and seal pliers theres a length of black pipe. That pipe can be screwed into the spark plug hole then you link the other end up to your compressor. That fills the cylinder with pressurised air which should stop the valve dropping.

Exactly

A wire hanger into the cylinder? :O
