    Just want to say a big thank you. I just finished changing my stem seals today after following your diy instructions. I couldn't use the cable tie tip because my springs were too small to compress with just cable ties so I used a spring compressor to do that but I loved your tip about the magnetic socket and metal mallet. It worked beautifully. Thanks :) tell you what though, I have a D15 and changing 16 seals is so time consuming!

    Good tutorial - I used I few times - First, use "Sintetic" rope like him - Don't leave dirt and it's more difficult to have a knot - Then the part of the zip ties, buy good ones or just buy a "Valve spring compressor" it's a cheap tool and very effective for hard springs.-
    Move the piston with the hand, and then you can put it in first Gear, to prevent go down again, when you are working in the valves doing force down.-
    When you finish, move the piston and then remove the rope.-
    Then always check the timing usually it's not going to move because you don't remove the belt, but it's double-check and VERY important, check the valve clearance, after finish in d16y8 are for example 0.20 mm for intake and 0.25 for exhaust.-
    If everything it's fine, just enjoy!

    THE ROPE IS USED TO HOLD THE VALVES UP IN THE HEAD. YOUR TAKING THE RETAINERS AND SPRINGS OFF TO GET TO THE SEALS WITHOUT THE ROPE THE VALVES WOULD DROP INTO THE CLYNDER. YOU DO ALL 4 VALVES WITH IT IN THE CLYNDER THEN REMOVE THE ROPE AND USE IT AGAIN IN THE NEXT ONE! PEOPLE STOP ASKING WHATS THE ROPE FOR!

    • @bbearhug

    Actual genious, I have all the right kit to do this in situ in work in minutes, but for your average fellow doing this on the driveway this saves the cost of all those tools . Bit more time consuming but a productive way to spend a lazy afternoon and save some dough, nice one. And no need to disturb the timing belt. Or inlet exhaust and head gaskets.

  • @MADMODS
    @MADMODS  11 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Once the ropes in the cylinder you can do all 4 seals in minutes saves the time of removing the head and saves costs of new gaskets. Took me 2 hours to do all 16valves and put it back together so now to long.

    He feed it down into the cylinder when the cylinder was at BDC, he then cranked it up to TDC which compressed the rope into the valves, he did this so the valve doesn't fall when he removes the valve spring keepers and retainers.

    i wouldnt have believed the cable tie spring compression trick until i saw it. might i suggest that it is important to ensure the valve spring is at the top of the valve stem so those little collets/retainers dont go into orbit when you cut the cable ties.

    No you turn the engine by hand on the crank no need to have it in gear.
    And about 1meter of ropes enough tie a big knot in it for 2 reasons 1 you know how much you feed in and 2nd so it doesn't fall into the engine.

    • @abdulakhtar8586
      @abdulakhtar8586 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Why did you put rope into the cylinder ? whats that to prevent ? planning on doing my own stem seals this has helped alot but mines a B16A2 DOHC so it will be slightly different just been looking at a few videos to help build knowledge lol

    • @jasonbentley2819
      @jasonbentley2819 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      +Abdul Akhtar When you put the rope into the cylinder, it will coil up so when you bring the piston to the top, it stops the valves falling down into the cylinder (:

    • @richardgordon3397
      @richardgordon3397 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      another way of doing it without rope is to use a air compressor and fitting that that threads into the spark plug hole and add air to about 10-15 psi ( you dont need a whole lot , don"t use all125 psi ) the air will hold the valves from moving ..they can't the pressure holds them up , and only release pressure after the valve spring has been fully reinstalled with retaining clip

    • @MADMODS
      @MADMODS  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Ehsan Ahmed if you are using air you want the piston at bottom or as you fill the chamber with compressed air it could push the piston down and lose the compression thats holding the valve up .
      hope this helps.
      you will also need a air compressor.

    • @ahmedza9303

    I have a 2002 Altima 2.5 and its consuming oil like crazy. I replaced the valve cover and gasket with a new OE Nissan cover. The spark plug well had oil accumulating before the cover change. all nice and dry now. Have you ever heard of changing the valve guide seals with the head on? The car is NOT smoking and I think the oil is coming from an exhaust valve guide which is slamming the oil into the exhaust...unburned and has fried the catalytic converter. I do not want to replace the converter until I have the oil leak (valve guide seals) fixed. Do you know if the QR25 motor valve guide seals would/could be done this way?

      Crank so the cylinder your about to do is a bottom dead center feed the rope in about a meter, then crank it back round by hand not the starter untill you feel resistance just give it a little bit more just to make sure its tight then your good to start removing the valve springs.

    @zerbinauto 9 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    If your valve keepers are not perfectly in place when you cut those zip ties the spring could launch into your face and hurt you bad! That's why it's safer to use the right tool (spring compressor) and slowly release the tension. Just trying to keep a few more working eyes in the world lol.

    • @ssss-df5qz

    Or if I moved the piston upward to hold the valve, is it just okay to reverse the rotation of the crankshaft to free the rope?

    Even at dead top, is there still enough dept(room in the cylinder) for the valve to drop in the cylinder without the rope?

    • @MADMODS

      You can try it without and see but you need the valve up as high as Possible as compressing the spring and replacing the retainers is tight, would be impossible if the valve was 10mm lower and if it did drop just below the top of the guide it would be very hard to retreve. The rope is cheap and works well.

    A Different way of doing it, not sure if i would trust the cable ties, would be paranoid that when i cut them off it would come off un-even and shot off the retainers

    @damoblake6000 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    by doing the rope trick do you have to do it in all spark plug holes or just first one to keep all valves from dropping down?

    • @FINDITFIXITRESTOREITBUILDIT
      @FINDITFIXITRESTOREITBUILDIT 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      all of them it holds the valve up in the cylinder head so you don't drop a valve when removing the spring.

      @@FINDITFIXITRESTOREITBUILDIT so am I right in thinking when the rope is in that cylinder I can remove 4 seals at the same time then move on to the next 4?

    Make sure u use a proper rope that wont leave anything in the cilinder.
    And search for a spring compressor, they are already starting from 20 euro, this could be dangerous and beside of that if your unlucky when cutting the zip ties you could lose you retainers.

      The engine will lock tight against the rope holding the values up.

    I have my head removed off my dirtbike and before I re assemble I want to wipe it down to not leave dust etc... can I use wd40 ?, will it ruin the valve stem seals?
