First is removing the valve stem cap which will expose the Schrader valve.
Using the exterior thread chaser, this is used to clean up any damaged threads that are used for the cap. If you noticed, there’s a noticed out portions to allow for any debris to escape while straightening out any threads. Simply thread it on, then remove it, and this can be done a few times if they’re badly damaged.
This exterior thread chaser also has an alternative purpose. Replacing a valve stem, cutting off the old one.
The new one has a water and soap mixture applied for easier installation.
It’s inserted into the hole of the wheel, the tool is then threaded on.
The tool can be used as a “T” handle to pull through the new valve stem, ensuring it’s properly seated.
Next is using the Schrader valve core removal tool. The center of this is hollowed out for the valve push rod and it has notched out portions to lock onto the valve for removal and installation. Removing this valve is required to completely deflate the tire when it’s being unmounted or if you’re replacing the valve. Lock it into place, then turn counterclockwise to loosen and remove.
As a close up, here you can see the center portion fits inside the tool and then it locks onto the valve body.
The pointed tip is a reamer that is used to clean out the valve stem body. Sometimes excessive rubber from their’ construction or debris can plug up the hole cause fill or deflation issues. Stick it into the hole and rotate.
And finally is the thread chaser for the valve core threads inside the valve stem. Similar to the outside version, it’s noticed out on the sides to clean up the threads while allowing any debris to escape. Thread it into the stem and then remove it, this can be done a few times if needed.

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for posting.
Nice and simple explanation. I volunteer at a Bike Cooperative and we were discussing how to use this tool. The valve removal portion we all knew about. Didn’t realize that we could “chase external threads”. Also, none of us knew what the other two pointed sections of the tool were used for.
We take in bike donations - most need a bit of work. This tool, and your clear explanation have helped us immensely!
Thank you! I see a lot of 4 way tools for sale but they never explain what they are for, I guess they take for granted everyone knows.
You're welcome!
Im watching from Jalisco México. I just bought a kit to change my motorcycle tires and this little guy came with it. I had no idea what everything was for. Thank you for a detailed explanation. God bless and Jesus loves you.
Thank you so much for the kind words and feedback!
Nice. I never thought of having a thread cleaner for this but it makes alot of sense given the frequency of chances for damage and the softness of the metal.
Thank you! It's not comment, but I've ran into a couple that were slightly bent. Sometimes you can straighten them, other times they're too far gone.
Thank you!! I was driving myself crazy trying to find a video on this!
Glad I could help!
Love that tool! That thread cleaner is a neat idea!
Dude I have one of those and couldn't remember what the heck it was for. Thank you for the random one :D
No problem, happy to help!

1:07 I suppose 303 Protectant could be used , since it is water-based .
Anyone seeing this issue for tesla model x rear driver side tires? Found this tool from the tesla motor clubs forum chat group. I wonder if its a common problem, due to weight of car and hitting pot holes.
v.v so thats how my stalker removed the cores on my tire...
Tire shop has replaced twice my valve stem and it's still leaking through the valve core. Gonna replace it myself and see how it goes.
How did it go ?
@@manupatisanthosh7046 valve core was defective twice in a row. Replaced it myself, took a few minutes and hasn't ever leaked since. Next time I'll do this before replacing the entire valve at a tire shop, time and cost effective and you can replace it as many times as you want as long as you have spare valve cores.
@@thaik56 did you take a tyre off to do it ?
Mines leaky too, not sure if I have to change the whole thing or just the pin.
@@manupatisanthosh7046 Not at all. Just replace the pin and see, replace again if it leaks. If it's still leaking go to a shop to find the leak, it could be the valve that needs to be replace or there is a leak somewhere else on the tire or between the tire and the rim.
When you unscrew the pin, have your other pin ready so you don't lose all the air, otherwise not a big deal, just inflate your tire again after replacing your pin.
@@thaik56 cool, I'll try doing that. Thanks for the advice
Dude this is an year old and I FUing love CZcams for these types of vid , just staring at an tool that was passed down to me after my dad's passing and I'm over here holding onto them knowing there's some shizz I could be doing with it. 🫂 Thanks whoever made this vid
You’re very welcome and I’m sorry to hear about your loss.
