Knipex Twin Grip pliers make quick work of valve guide seals

Just got these a few months ago and keep find great uses for them. They made super quick work of the valve stem seals on the heads today. The thought I’d share to make this easier for anyone else out there!

What I'm interested in is that little valve spring compressor tool you have sitting there in the background..

I'm getting tired of my universal I bought for my MINI Cooper...

It worked pretty well, but it was a cheapy from Autozone. I'd get the more skookum version of it next time: https://amzn.to/3J1Vw60
