Review on ๐Ÿ”ง ARES 15017 Valve Spring Compressor - Enhance Valve Compression on Overhead Valve Engines with Direct Action Lever by William Mathis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very important! in Engine Tools

I was a little apprehensive about some of the reviews but I quickly realized that they were misusing the tool. You don't have to clamp this and then turn the screw threads, rather you lightly tighten the threads with the handle fully closed just to set them in place, then pull the handle back and adjust in small increments and clamp then tighten it until you get close enough to just about dislodge the keeper, but no more so leverage isn't impossible. If you use it right, it's amazing!

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • some flaws
