Worked exactly as advertised! exactly the tool I needed to compress the valve springs on my Continental 0-200 cylinders.
Worked great on my C90! Perfect tool for removing the valve.
Used on a O-200. Works great!!
Perfect Continental Type Single Valve Spring Compressor. Very simple device that accomplishes a more complicated task to remove the valve springs while at the same time maintaining a closed valve. Often necessary to perform this task when removing a single stuck valve to burnish the stem and clear the valve guide of carbon buildup on a small Continental engine.
Does a good job of releasing and applying valve spring tension for valve removal/installation.
Worked great but I gave it 4 stars because it was missing the small bar when it came. I had to make my own by cutting a nail head off.
Iâm not sure what the 1/2â steel rod was for. There was no way to use it on a TSIO 360. I bought a thin wall steel tube from Loweâs and drilled two holes to attach it to the rocker bolts. That worked as the fulcrum for the tool.
Tool works perfectly
