## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work on 60/70 air-cooled VW's?**
A: I would not buy this tool!  It's just not up to the task. The unit is too hard to close, because the handle is too short to collapse the spring, and it fell apart after two springs!

**Q: Will this work on a GM inline 6**
A: No, too small.

**Q: Will this work on small engines ie 10hp briggs**
A: Hi, I'm happy to help you, what are the inches of your springs, if not more than 8, it will fit

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Good tool but didn't work for what I purchased it for.
  

*by C***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2021*

I saw a lot of other reviews here claiming this tool was terribly built, and doesn't work for anything bigger than an engine you can fit in the palm of your hand. I disagree. It was quite well built and worked on my other projects, but it's flaw is the inability to compress  valves over a significant side wall. I was using it on a 1zz toyota engine, the valve springs are somewhat recessed into the head, and there is what I estimate to be a 1/2 inch of height above the valve spring retainer. The armature reaches around just fine, but the portion that clamps onto the valve spring retainer collides with the gasket surface of the valve cover. I highly recommend you inspect your head to see how recessed the valves are, otherwise this will not work for you. On other small heads for things like hondas, or even larger V8 heads that have raised up valves, this should work fine. Hopefully this review helps you determine whether this will work for you!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    It's a great tool for side valve engines.
  

*by B***Z on Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2024*

Good tool for the price.

### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    cheap and not worth the hassle
  

*by B***  on Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2020*

Cheap made, led to believe it was capable of doing chevy 350 heads, the handle is too short to add the pressure needed, done the 1st spring ok, then the jaws that collapse the spring would just bend and spread, only good for small engines where you don't need any pressure to collapse the spring
