“economy valve spring compressor”
i recently purchased the spring compressor for 19.99,i was changing the valve seals on a 1997 dodge neon 2.0 sohc engine,it worked very well on the one set of springs but when i went to do the other springs ( either exhaust or intake) the springs were to close to the edge of head couldnt get on the retainer,so i made a adapter to raise the compressor away from the head , which i see they sell them on **** with different lengths and as far as flexing the frame, yes it did flex a little but i didnt have the jaws tight enough,i tighned them and that was the end of flexing problem,im very satisfied with tool, for the cost of it ive used it 2 times in the last week
