Hi All,
I have a 912S that needs the (new valve spring retainer) SB 912-022 done. There are a couple of different types of tools that are needed to compress the springs to remove the rockers and retainers etc. I was wondering if anyone has these or know where I can rent or borrow them. One style costs $541.00 USD new and not sure of the alternate one that I found on the net. It was a simple bar bolted to the head and a piece that is shaped like the two retainers side by side and can be connected to a 3/8" breaker bar as a lever, the valves being held in place with cord packed into the cylinder through a spark plug hole. Any thoughts or ideas from anyone. Thank you in advance for any help available.

Troy, the alternate method worked fine for me about ten years ago. The tool and the rope came with the new retainers. =Don Maxwell
