I'm no expert, but I think thats the installation tool. I think you should have to drill out the old guides. But, if it works, it works. Drilling is probably easier. A lisle 59000 tool kit i think is the proper tool for removal.

you have to heat the head up 90 degrees to remove the guildes safety, doing it cold will mushroom the guildes, damaging the guild hole.

A $1 5x50mm Allen bolt and a drift will work too and you won't bend the tool either. Now the tool head is bent (it doesn't slip down the guide 100% anymore as you've found out) it will gall the softer bronze guide when you try and install it as the bend will have to correct itself using the ID of the guide and it will scar the guide. Also use a 3lb mallet as it does not have a hardened face like a hammer and wont chip anything like a punch or a grade 8 bolt. That's a great price for that tool, just a design that is prone to bend the turned down end if you don't hit it exactly square with the mallet.

Well apparently this isn't the thing to do anymore according to the comments :-) But this video still taught me another small piece of how an engine is put together. Didn't know valve guides existed but have sort of wondered how valves were mounted. I guess these guide pieces are a starting point. Thanks for sharing stuff.

Great clip! Usually machine shops overcharge for that kind of service. Thank you!!!

Good job.

😮good cheap tool💯

I liked and subscribed. I like the way you describe things. It's very clear and has just the right level of technical detail. Camera shots are pretty good, too. If I could suggest any improvement, I'd say maybe a little editing to delete the parts where you walk from one part of your shop to another and any dead air time. Otherwise great, and I look forward to your future educational videos.

nice

Dang, those guides are in there! I’m gonna use a 3 lb hammer lol

Do you have a link to the valve guide remover? Have a name of the tool or brand of tool?

hey, in here malaysia, they recommend me to replace with new cylinder head, it can be repaired, right? grr

great video, not a bunch of bs

On a junk head, ok, whack away. If working on a good head- it's best to use this to press guides in & out. No risk of cracking or slipping a hammer, shocking blows like that crack aluminum very easily. If you don't have an Arbor press, either use your car, or take it to a Machine Shop. Slow, steady pressure is just as effective.

How do you install them?

What's the link for the tool

Can u use the same tool to install it too?

Maybe next time do it on a work table with somthing soft under de head so you cant get any damage on the head like u can get with working in the floor…

Just heat the head up in a barbecue for 20 minute before and they will fly out

i wouldnt let you fix my lawnmower

Man if you could have installed it on a air gun it would have been quick . 👍

Houla vaut mieux chauffé la cullasse avant l'extraction sous peine d'arracher voir pire fissures l'emplacement ce qui arrive très vite car yas des endroits cest très fin .. donc chauffé et extraire de suite le guide sans perdre de temp il faut sa soit fait en un coup trez rapide.ensuite pour les réinstaller les guides il faudra realeser le diamètre du guide neuf avec un forêt spéciaux pour qui ais les bonne côte. Et rectification siège de soupape....

I think and air hammer would be best my dumb ass would miss the remover tool and jack the head up lol

wear glove

That was painful to watch

With my luck...I'd get the tool stuck in head

Correct way to remove guides heat up the head in the oven for the right amount of time and the right temperature use the tool with a air hammer safest way to remove guides and install them make sure the guides are chilled and the correct lubricant used to install guides taxi I am retard machinist there is a correct way to remove guys without damaging the head or damaging in your new guy when you put them in it's called professionalism learning from a pro and being a pro

Hack didn’t even put it on wood
