I am selling a pair of valve spring compressors that I doubt I will ever use again so I have decided to sell them on
The first one is a Sykes Pickavant model suitable for OHV engines such as A series Mini engines and the old Ford OHV engines.
Its also likely that it might fit smaller side valve engines like lawn mowers. It WONT fit a cub although it might be possible to make an adaptor to make it fit. Price is £6
Picture below is not my tool but is identical. Tool is in perfect working order
The second compressor is a Neilsen branded compressor. This tool can be used on most petrol and diesel OHV, OHC & DOHC engines. You DO NOT need to remove the head to compress the spring as it is held up by the piston or compressed air.
This tool could pay for itself by what it would cost you to purchase a head gasket kit. This tool has only been used once.
Price is £25
I can post at additional cost. Payment must be by postal order sent by recorded delivery

I am willing to swap both of them for a single seat with hinge in VGC to fit a 12v Cub. A single seat from a Riders Cub will be perfect
