Cam Swap Tools

[skwerl]

Tad,
Another member lent me his valve spring tool. From looking at the image above I can read the first page of instructions but cannot find further instructions on your website. The 'instructional video' only shows about 10 seconds of blurry footage of the tool in use but nothing telling the viewer how to actually use it. I'm sure it will be obvious after getting through the first one but I'm still at the befuddled stage.

Skwerl, depnding on what youre needing to do, the larger surface area is for removing the followers and the smaller is for removing the valve springs. The best way I found was to put the tool together and squeeze the tool under the cam and the, position the foot under the follower. Then you use a socket on the side of the tool and rotate it towards the valve springs and that should compress it. It definitely is harder to do while in the car, especially the back ones but it can be done.

Thanks RJ, I found the instruction sheet in the images accompanying the tool.

Brian,

This may help http://www.site.shopfreedomracing.com/uploads/3V_Cam_Installation_Instructions.pdf
Also, not certain which video you're referencing but perhaps the second video on this page will help http://www.site.shopfreedomracing.com/Instructionals.html
It will be easier to see if you make it full screen.

EDIT - I could have also sent you the basic instruction sheet but I see you already found that.
