I am tired of my weak valve springs and need to change them. I really don't want to pull the heads if I don't have to. I ordered a Kirban valve spring tool last September only to find out a couple months later that they were discontinued. I posted that I wanted to buy a Kirban tool on turbo buick with no luck. Does anyone know a tool I can buy that will work? Thanks for your input.
 
Any valve spring compressor will work.You just have to air up the cylinder with an air compressor.I made a tool to air it up using and old spark plug and an air line fitting.just busted the the plug leaving the threaded part and welded the air fitting to it.You can get a vavle spring compressor at any autopart store.
