Gets the job done on tools and equipment

Great little all round compressor. The workmanship of the instrument is the only thing that kept me from giving 5 stars. Rough edges on stampings that I will remove to make it more comfortable to hold.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Expensive

Not universal! good for power tools

As this is a review of the product itself I have given it 4 stars. BUT! This is not a UNIVERSAL valve spring puller. Make sure you research what tool is needed and see if it works. That's not for me.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Repair

good product - power tools

Appears to be a good product but it has a design flaw: the hooks come loose under pressure after some use. Some fixtures on the sides may be needed to prevent the hooks from separating. but that's just my opinion. I'm not a real mechanic, just trying to learn and save some money by doing it myself.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Compatibility

Just be careful not to compress the spring.

In my experience, using this tool was a bit different. It was difficult to squeeze the valves without springing the spring and flying through the air. As I tightened the knob, it slid down the spring pivot and worked. Anyway, I finally got all 12 valve springs.

Pros
  • One-year trial
Cons
  • Crumpled

Not for all springs

Easy to use but not for all springs and I do not recommend a dual spring configuration. I have a Ranger 4.0 OHV and it doesn't compress the internal spring. The hooks don't quite engage and the levers on them don't grab enough of the spring to compress it enough for me to easily insert the holder. Probably better suited for smaller engines.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Security

Good build quality good for tools and equipment

Compressor serves its purpose, very well finished, handle rotates easily to fully compress the springs, only flaw is that the edges do not hold the spring very much well you have to spread the coils of the spring with a screwdriver to get the compressor lips between the coils and then your best bet is to try and hold the compressor against the spring to keep the compressor from popping out.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • There are nuances
