Scott Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 It's a very good job to do on your own if you are competent. There is only really one special tool, and that's the snapon valve seat remover. The other bit of kit you need, for pulling off the old seals, is about £5 on ebay. Doing it with the head off is even better, but a much bigger job if you are doing it on your own without a lift or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
