Hey everyone, I've been doing some maintenance on my 91' M5 & am struggling to find the special tool needed to depress the buckets in order to check/change out the valve shims.
The cheapest I can find this tool is here: https://www.toolsource.com/adjusting...-p-114451.html
Does anyone know where I could find this for cheaper?
Also, will I need to check the clearances, then order the correct shims online accordingly? Kind of annoying having the car apart then just waiting a few days for parts.
I will be doing this along with an ITB synchronization with the carbtune vacuum meter (displays 4 vacuum values at once which is super handy)
I know to have the engine stone cold when doing the shim job as well.
Thanks in advance!
