4 star product, nothing 5 star product here and only 3 stars because Amazon says it is acceptable. Yes, it can be used, but I'm a little afraid to use it as the previous owner didn't know how to use tools.

However, on a NEW OMT spring compressor of the same model, this one was amazing and I would be SURE a specialty store…
