Valve Keeper Remover/Installer Kit 4.5mm-7.5mm OHV Engines

A valve keeper remover/installer kit for working on most overhead valve engines with valve stems from 4.5mm to 7.5mm or 5/16in to 3/8in. It is made for removing and fitting valve keepers with a simpler, more controlled method during valve spring and cylinder head work.

Used for engine servicing, rebuild work and valve disassembly, this kit suits garage repairs, workshop use and more involved vehicle maintenance jobs. It can be used on the car or on the bench, which is useful when carrying out strip-down work, replacing valve stem seals or reassembling valvetrain components. The smaller size also makes it suitable for some Toyota four cylinder and Chrysler New World engine applications where access and fit can be more limited.

The tool body includes a magnet to capture keepers during removal, helping reduce the chance of small parts dropping or going missing while you work. For installation, the keeper is loaded in the retainer on the valve stem and the handle is then pushed or tapped to fit it into place. For removal, the tool is pushed or tapped with a hammer to release the valve keepers. The stated size range covers common valve stem sizes used on overhead valve engines, which makes it a practical option for regular engine maintenance and repair work.
