Made tool outta an old sparkplug socket. Used a benchgrinder to cut out the side channels. Lets you have access to both sides of the valve stem.
Be sure to file down the sharp edges so that you don't scrape the sides of the bucket-well if it slips.
Another trick to protect the bucket well... slide in an old business card between the spring and the sides of the bucket-well.
When putting in the valve keepers... Stick the keeper to a screwdriver mit a little dab o' axle grease. Stick this through the tool next to the valve, and come in from the other side mit a small screwstick and put it in place.
I didn't have a large "C" clamp, so using a long extension and a socket wrench, I had my lazy 19 year old son, (who still doesn't have a job) put some weight on it to compress the spring while I worked.
And don't laugh at my drawings. (I'm more autistic than artistic)
