Hi All,
I buddy donated his 885 head for me to rebuild. This is my first time attempting anything like this. (Obviously!)
I picked up the Craftsman Valve Spring Compressor in order to remove the Valves for cleaning/ replacement/ etc, but I am having a terrible time relieving the tension from the Upper Spring Plate. I know this head has been sitting out and drying out for a little while so I applied a little oil in hopes to lube where the collets meat the spring plate, but little success.
Any other helpful tips ? Also, dumb question but are the Collets and Spring Plates reusable?
Thanks
