Did a forum search on this, but didn't find anything that helped. I borrowed a valve spring compressor tool from Advance Auto (Powerbuilt model #648615) so I could swap out the exhaust valves, but it won't work on the CRD head. Does anybody know a chain parts store that normally would have one that will would work, and maybe even a make/model#?

Thanks as always,

Steve

WW,

The Harbor Freight valve spring compressor worked like a champ. Thanks for suggesting it!
