i'm in the process of replacing the valve seals on my poor ole' ty. number 1 and 3 cylinders are done. my tool doesn't seem to fit on number five. anyone got a trick for that one other than pulling the brake booster? i forsee the same trouble on the number six cylinder too

Re: valve seals

I used this overhead compressor from sears...

I had to knock the handle (just a press fit) out of it so it could turn on #5, but it worked pretty well using a large allen wrench in the hole left by the handle.

Re: valve seals

the cheap ones at autozone/advance will work on all of them.
