    Valve Spring Compression Tool

     



    Saw this shade tree mechanics tool, and thought it's kind of cool. An old wrench, a bolt, washer & nut and you're in business.

    I'd not seen that one - cool. I used to have one similar to that made from a piece of angle iron; with the right appurtenances, it could be used on many different engines.
