    Perfectly explained, also shown that the spring testers need a calibration spring, that i bet that not everyone has used or have.

    Great video as always. any tips how to measure valve spring height on import heads that have small diameter springs and are deep in hole so there are no room for regular spring height micrometer or snap gauge ? I have made custom tool for that, but its not very accurate.

    I rebuilt my Duramax motor and after a few days of driving one of my rocker bridge got dislodge. I reinstalled it and set the valve lash and it again. I suspect that I might have a bad spring. Any thought. Will a floating valve cause this? I didnot check the springs and I reused them. My motor has over 300k miles on it.

    Today's youth expect tools to be an "end all" for them. They have completely forgotten that tools are an extension of personal skills. IE: how do you break a socket?
