This tool works great to remove valves but DOES NOT install them back on BMW 325xi. I took all 24 valves off in under 5 mins which was a huge benefit!! Note: please make sure you order the double set and not the single because there is a fat end one and a slim end one

I paid $59 for this tool. It is not worth what I paid for it. I am a certified mechanic. Was working on a 2003 Saturn ion. To replace the valve seals. It took the valve retainers off no problem and I am thinking ok maybe this will work for what I am doing. But in the long run and long story short. I had to end up taking the head off (which costed more money) to put the valve retainers back on. So in my opinion it is not really worth getting.

Got this to do valve seals on my Civic while the head was still on the Block. Worked great. Ran a thin rope down the spark plug hole and raise the Piston to top dead center to hold the valves up. This is the only thing that work. AutoZone and O'Reilly rental tools would not work. Took me a day and a half to figure out their supplies suck. Later tried it on my LS 5.3 heads that I had on a bench. It also worked great. Don't know how it would work while the heads are on the block but I can't complain so far. Highly recommended if you're going to do valve seals or any kind of head work more than once

This tool is a must for any garage mechanic. Tool is small, lightweight and extremely easy to use. This model came with two different size tools, which handles almost any small block heads. Great tool.

After review a bunch of valve removal tools. This is the best and cheapest one as a universal tool. Some are made specific for the engine youre working on for the same price. Other universal tools are more cumbersome to use. Clamps/claws dont fit into tight spots on some engines. So this style of tool is the best universal one. It comes in 2 sizes. One large and one small. Depending on the engine you will use one or the other. Please research how to use the tool properly and you will have no issues with how easy it is to use the tool.

Used on Mitsubishi endeavour 2004. Worked better than any other tool (I have 4 styles of valve tool). Also used on 2011 Nissan juke worked flawless. Literally place tool and hit with hammer for removal. So easy. Zack Templeman

Easy to use removing OEM springs and keepers, especially the import, hard-to-get-to ones and excellent for putting them back on! Not recommended for on-block removal with the air method; if you have burned valves, it will not work, but great for off-the-block head work.

I'll never use a spring compressor again. So simple to use I feel stupid for not thinking of it myself. Perfect tool for multi-valve import heads w/recessed springs.

I can't believe I waited so long to buy one of these. It saves so much time, is so much easier, and I would even say there is less risk of damage with this tool. In addition you'll have a much harder time losing keepers. Buy it.
