new question on installing these....since I don't have easy access to compressed air, I was thinkin about using the rope method...but as I thought more about it..that would mean that I would have to rotate the crank for each cylinder. That's fine and dandy, but I guess I can throw out the thought of keeping my timing belt secured as in the EvoMoto cam install how-to...
Or am I not thinkin correctly? Any thoughts on makin this easier....
Also, bout to purchase this tool, the basic kit lets you choose a loader size, but 6mm is standard. How do I know which one I need? I have a micrometer, is there something I should measure before purchasing this thing? And how did you figure I needed both 33 and 35mm sleeves? Aren't all the springs the same size? Anyway, just want to make sure I get the right parts that I need

I'd have to look at the shop manual again, but I left my disk at work. I'll look it up when I get there. Not sure on the load size though. By the time you buy the basic keeper-eeze, loader tool and a few of the attachments you will have spent the same as the full kit. I'd recommend getting the full kit and having everything you need. It will re-sell easier if your going to get rid of it later as well. Want to buy my snap on?
