more on to this: I purchased Craftsman spring compession tool. trying
to get a bent valve out and it does not even move. What do people do in
this case? Does anybody go after a job replacing bent valves once
pistons hit them or just buy a new cylinder head from a wrecker? my
timing belt pulley froze, ripped a few teeth from the new timing belt
and here is the outcome... Dimag
