Need to replace valve stem seals on 1.8 dohc ! Trying to change them with head on motor ! Have air tool to keep valves from falling but cannot find tool at parts store that will work !! Please help !
There is lots or room for error trying it this way. I have replaced MANY valve-train components, but I always removed the head when necessary. Kia does not recommend doing it your way. The problem I see would be un-seating the and reassembling the retainers without pushing the valve into the cylinder and losing air pressure.
Thank you for advice ! I talked with friend this morning who owns machine shop an totally said same thing !! I appreciate your time an information with this !!
