Description: Compress valves on small overhead valve or L-head engines. Tool has a throat depth of 6-1/4" and jaw openings 3 to 5-3/8". It's designed for lightweight valve springs. Compressor works on L-heads with manifolds removed and many industrial engines.

Tool maintains constant length as spring is compressed. Use with 901 or 2992 Air Hold Fittings to keep valve in place. Caution: Vehicle must be placed in park/neutral before applying air pressure, otherwise vehicle may move. Keep hands clear of fan, belts and pulleys since slight crankshaft rotation will occur.

Hope this helps.
