You made that look so easy that I'm wondering why most mechanics I know say they hate doing valves; that you have to seat them just right,etc. Maybe I'm thinking of tapettes. Anyway you make this look easy and so simple. Great tutorial. I've always been fascinated with this stuff. I tried watching my Dad working on the family car back in the mid 50s and was told to 'get out of here'. Yeh, the good ol' days when there was something wrong with a girl to be interested in such things. In my teens I hung out at the local garage/service station. I was lucky. They didn't mind. Working on my own viehicles saved me so much money. Doing just one small repair saved me enough money to buy my own tools so I could do my own brake jobs, change and set a distributor, a starter and everything else - I learned from watching others and buying the manuals for each of the vehicles I owned. I've even installed 2 remote starters. I hope this explains why some old lady likes watching your channel.

if The head is in the car it’s a lil harder. If the head is off it’s easy

[@siccicey9479]

yea they hate lapping valves. the tool for it is a bitch if they’re not perfectly clean

[@anglegrinder4630]

Love what it does

[@robertramirez3994]

Excellent video with clear explanation. Thank you.

[@FixingWithPassion]

Cool!

[@pianocovers3741]

Amazing, thanks, no nonsense talk or opinions, straight knowledge

[@checkmatenate]

nice to see the tool in use! exactly what I came to see

[@quasimodo6264]

Exactly what I needed, when I needed it. Thanks!

[@blisterj]

Thanks so much last time i did this was in the 90's so I needed a refresher cheers !

[@moggie100th]

Well done - thank you for sharing!

[@Mrheshe1]

Sir, thank you very much!

[@kennypence8817]

Never did this before so thank u for showing everyone how to use it!

[@FixingWithPassion]

Nice!

[@dougdileo4727]

just sold mine last night, worked great on a mitsubishi eclipse- other spring tools were a nightmare

[@lebronjordan802]

Great info!

[@grampzquad]

Perfect little video. Just what I needed to do the head on a 2010 Passat 2.0.

[@JohnDoe-vw3yc]

thanks for the demo - more confident in doing my valve job now !

[@FixingWithPassion]

Nice!

[@juanlop8974]

Wonderful video straight to the point and honest tool review. Great job

[@FixingWithPassion]

Word!

[@jonmon9662]

Absolutely perfect. 👏

[@fredriksalmen5159]

Thanks for this, good video on how to use the tool :) Just got mine today, changing 12 valve stem seals and re-laping the valves on my Triumph motorcycle this weekend! Do you have to pay attention to the position of the valve if you anyway are re-laping?

[@powerspot5000]

Thanks for the video

[@fixorflat7845]

Hey Nathan love your videos if you wanted to help some of the audio there's a program called audacity it's free if you take the audio you can silence some of the background noise it's extremely easy good luck and keep it up!

[@MxSoulfly]

Love that you're doing this on a VG33. I was looking at different videos of people using different valve spring tools to see which might work best, since I didn't have much luck with one I rented from the auto parts store, and as fate would have it, I came across a video of you working on the exact same head I'm about to do work on. Very big help, thanks!

[@FixingWithPassion]

Thank you!

[@jomangeee9180]

@@FixingWithPassion Thank you so much a quick question so one end of the clamp is on the spring. is the other end on the valve?

[@tonyfrunk4029]

If your going to tear head down you might as well lap the valves and check the valve guides if the valve dose turn it will not affect anything

[@1987whitez]

Nice little video I have a nissan heads am doing now as well, thank for the vavle seal. I don't have much room in my garage as well and putting all new components in my cylinder heads. Great job dude

[@FixingWithPassion]

Nice!

[@cal638]

thanks for ur video and for sharing the knowledge, like the other youtuber said, u go straigth to the point....alot of other supposely mechanical instructional videos dont truly show or explain how to do things, or they will cut the video and wont show how things are done,.... or there some that I have commented on, cos they purposly lie with improper methods, ten tey cut the cam and then show the part taken off, ten continue filming....

[@gilzr473]

Great video thanks for sharing.

[@FixingWithPassion]

Nice!

[@healthymixzemason1397]

Nice going buy that same one thanks 👍👍

[@FixingWithPassion]

Nice!

[@wyattandwill12]

I'd also suggest tripling a rag (or however many times needed without risking the tool slipping when compressed) on each side where it bites to avoid damaging the valve or the piece on top of the spring. If you're wanting to put a rag on the top you can just cut a hole in it when folded up that's large enough to have room to grab the keepers. I'm probably gonna buy one of these because I ordered the kind that looks like a crow bar but it didn't clear and you can't take the bolts out of the valve rockers to hook the tool under. These are great for if you're gonna remove the head and if you aren't, I suggest the cylindrical kind that you bang with a hammer. The one I saw in a video had a magnet so that it'll grab the keepers.

[@FixingWithPassion]

Nice!!

[@TammyDenseDdank5658]

Thx guy, need to do Honda sh125i valves with this tool.

[@AndrewBulmer]

great video

[@BrandonLyons1]

Ive done two head gaskets on VG motors but never installed new seals. This time in going to i want my 2002 to last without regrete from not doing it while its easy

[@bradleypjennings]

Nice video and great suggestion on using the hammer to free up the binding keeper. I just experienced this on an Arctic Cat Prowler. Launched the keepers across the garage floor. Out of sheer luck, I found them. Should have watched your video before doing the first one. Live and learn.

[@FixingWithPassion]

One hit my eye one time ;{

[@victorrios9936]

Try putting a socket over it then tap it it might help a bit

[@TammyDenseDdank5658]

@@victorrios9936 Yes, do it in a clean room, wear eye protection, socket tap it to loosen it. Good stuff.

[@tommysanfilippo3165]

Never use a magnet on the keepers. Once magnetized they can and will stick to the retainer and can cause a dropped valve. I know many guys have down this forever and neve had a problem. But check any factory service class and they will say no magnets. I went to the Honda service seminars and that is where I was told to never use a magnet to grab the keepers or to replace them,

[@chickenfoundation9323]

How can it cause a valve to drop if it sticks to the retainers

[@jomangeee9180]

Thank you so much a quick question so one end of the clamp is on the spring. is the other end on the valve?

[@GeorgeAusters]

Should you not relap the valves?

[@michaelcraft2664]

Does it really matter that the valve is in the same rotational direction when reassembling? I've read that, when the engine is running, the spring-keeper system is designed to rotate the valve a couple degrees every time the valve opens. This is done to eliminate "hot spots" on the valve. If so, then it means it's not important to maintain rotational direction when reassembling.

[@FixingWithPassion]

Yea true. I know on O 200 engines they have a rotator cap that does that. But the cleaver spring is subject to breaking sometimes and can get a hot spot on the exhaust valve. Yes I'm almost a licensed a&p aircraft mechanic /soon.

[@bigrod0069]

thanks

[@bgdesignandsolutions]

Any Con's to having one of these?

[@anglegrinder4630]

Those are all like new,diff strokes

[@bomark2002]

Why is it every time I go to buy a tool that is awesome and is a great deal is always 15 or 20 dollars more when I go hunt it down?

[@greasynutts4967]

What is the part number for that tool

[@Dactylonian]

A helpful video overall, but couldn’t tell what side or direction you installed the threaded rods in the first couple minutes. Also, it would have been helpful to see the tool attached to the body assembly. You focused a lot on the spring side.

[@TammyDenseDdank5658]

Its on the other side of the valve top head, maybe put some wood or cloth to prevent damage.

[@greasynutts4967]

Where can i get that same tool?? And how much did it cost?

[@billybarrett6839]

Ebay. I give 20.00 for my set.

[@bigrod0069]

think maybe I'll buy one

[@FixingWithPassion]

Nice!

[@bigrod0069]

@@FixingWithPassion if I buy is their any code or anything? for you to get credit from it or how should I do that?

works on small engines, too much deflection on HD heads
