peanut 0 Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 Has anyone got a how to guide on replacing the valve stem oil seals on VR6? Also need a list of tools needed if possible. Ive heard there is a tool to allow this to be done on the head, (air line pressurises the system keeping the valve up) also heard the one about feeding a bit of rope in the psark plug hole, till it hits the valve, rocking till tdc then the rope sits under the valve keeping it open. Other than the long nose valve pliers what else do i need to replace the seals? Got everything else to get the head off etc. Thanks in advance Gav Link to post Share on other sites
big jay 0 Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 never done them on a vr but you can get a tool with a spark plug thread on it which goes in the hole and you attach an air line to a compressor. keeps it at over 100 psi and they work well. another way is to blow a balloon up in the barrel but never tried this one ( souds dodgy ) Link to post Share on other sites
