valve spring retainers - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #90245 3 posts Started by garin
i've been working on my 3sgte and im deep in the water. the valve spring retainers on this engine as well as many other toyotas are a pain to install. i found retainer tools online. these tools help for quick removal and install... just thought i'd pass my findings along. i ordered the matco version.
