MitsuStyle - View Single Post - Anyone with a valve spring compressor i can use with the head on for rent

rst95eclipse · 04-05-2007

I only know of three valve spring compressors where you can use them with the head on. Snap-on (YA9140), Mitsubishi (MD998772) and Miller Special Tools (which looks like the Mitsu - and it just might be). Snap-on can be had for $130ish and the Mitsu/Miller for $350+. The Mitsu/Miller tool is what is pictured in the vfaq writeup. The Snap-on looks a bit like a homemade kit I once saw, which didn't look very impressive - but I guess it works. If you only have $200 and you're dead set on leaving the head on, buy the Snap-on tool and do it yourself. I'll then be happy to reimburse you some cash for the tool...
