This episode of Cars Simplified: Season Three reveals how to remove valve springs with a "Universal" Overhead Valve Removal Tool (Autocraft AC521 is shown in the video, but other companies make the tool as well) and different techniques that can be used, including a fast and aggressive approach.

The tool shown in the video is designed to grab on to and compress the valve spring, so that the keepers can be removed. Once the keepers are out of the way, the spring and retainer can be pulled out of the way, and the valve is free to be pulled out.

The head must be off the block to perform this properly.

Steve just used the neodymium magnet he had laying around, but you can buy one that works better for your tool.

Ending: Brumby on a road trip! Zen mode.
