Really need to add an explanation on how to keep the valve from dropping in to cylinder when spring and keepers are removed. Otherwise it’s a good video.

Man I swear!!!! I’ve had probably 5 of these exact spring compressor tools… I’ve absolutely never had luck with them working for me no matter how I use them…. Unless….. I use zip ties to keep it tight in place as I tighten it down

I've got a question. How much pressure will this compressor hold. Will it do double and triple springs. I do them off head but I've got just one on the exhaust side I need to do triple spring and I'm just wondering if it will hold that pressure. Thought I'd weld a socket to the top because you'll never do it by hand on a 2200 pound triple spring. The manufactured doesn't give the information. I know it will do double springs

Careful, you can drop valve into cylinder.
