Nah but it's pretty simple

Same as any other car really once you get the level brackets set in place

dont think he is a real mechanic

Lol Colin, I hear it's pretty common practice really. It's just not economical to take the head off all the time. Especially when you're busy. Worse case scenario, you drop the valve and you have to take the head off, which you needed to do anyway.

Compressed air

Aye if he can't work it out he's not much of a mechanic. Either use compressored air down the bores or string and rotate the engine to top dead center to compress. Then change as you would with the head off. There's a smart tool from blue point that removes and refits the collets with the hit of a hammer

And then buy walve master tool.

Hes has never done it with the head on before.and was just wondering. He has a fair idea. And he has been a mechanic for over 35 years
