Review on Enhanced Valve Shim Tool (Motion Pro πŸ”§ 08-0019) for Kawasaki KZ - Turbocharge your SEO by Jeremy Edwards

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Makes valve adjustment much easier.

I use this tool on my 2.4 liter Tacoma and it works much better than the valve pliers. It's fairly short and requires little pressure, but is much easier to handle. However, you still need to use a valve bucket pusher from another tool. I find it best to use one hand to keep the tip from slipping out while the other pushes it in. With one hand it tends to slip out and then your knuckles know how sharp the spark plug tubes are. I would like the bullet to be knurled on the grip or something because it gets very slippery with the slightest amount of oil on it. On the valves next to the fire wall, the valve cup for accommodating the pressing tool is very difficult to see. You can spend hours trying, or you can just loosen the cam caps in the right order and pop the disc out without squeezing the bucket.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Not as good as advertised
