Jim HIlgeford Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I Am removing Valve keepers on my 16 Valve engine. The manual calls for a MB-990666 Tool to complete the removal and reinstall. Any ideas where this can be obtained. Thanks in advance Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinCamFan Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 I made one, it wasn't too hard. Started with some thick walled SS pipe 'tubing' if you will the same diameter(or a bit larger, it's the ID that counts) then using a cut off wheel on a dremel or small angle grinder, I notched one side in an inveted V shape about 1/2 wide at the bottom of cut to about double that-ish about 3/4s of the way up the tube. Basically the flared V shape just gives you room to R&R the keepers with forceps or a pick. Also, your local cylinder head shop will likely disassemble for you for a few dollars.
