Sorry i meant valve stem seals , not valve stems  Is it like a spring com- presser or can it be done without the tool ?? The head is coming off anyway ..

You may be able to hire one rather than buy,if your unlikely to use it regularily.

Thanks Albs , i cant see anywhere that hires them around here though  Ive seen a sealy one brand new for £24 unless someone near could lend me one

I think there is a slightly charred one in a green house in brackley just below a smashed window, it might be worth enquiring about?

Got a valve spring compressor available in luton, but won't be back until Friday afternoon - you're welcome to borrow, last used on astra and megane(yuck- horrible thing to work on - rather do 6 astra heads than 1/4 of a megane)
