- swapping out leaking valve stem seals on the st170 / svt ford focus. iv used the rope trick to do it without removing the cylinder head. stem seals are just a few months old but poor quality and split causing the engine to burn oil. the head has recently been ported and polished and has gsxr 750 individual throttle bodies. itb

Another good job done at least you know they are done properly time consuming but it will be well worth the time and effort you have put in
Enjoyed the video Steve, very informative. Keep them coming 👍
Michael Cosgrove thank you very much. Will do.
what a brilliant trick with the rope and straw!
Nice video I got a Toyota MR2 that I've had parked in my garage for 4 years, put away fine but now valve seals have dried out, they were boarder line before I stored it so definitely need doing now, only trouble is taking the head of these motors is major striping, it was bad enough replacing injectors on it a few years back, ridiculous amount I had to take off just to get at them, anyway glad to see this as it's very similar to my setup using bucket lifters, Been trying to find a tool to do it and the one in your video would be perfect for my job, never used the rope method before as always taken the head off so here's hoping.
Ah Ford stem seals, God bless them, racked up loads of miles on my old XR3 and I would be replacing yearly to correct the plume of smoke on cold start.
Carl Richards bizarrely I had no smoke on start up. Just after over run and loads of oil consumption.
I have just subbed...got some serious catching up to do.
Top tip with the rope 😎
Jritchie Jritchie thank you very much. The sub is greatly appreciated.
Top vid,. You're a funny bloke It helps 😁
This is good content, thanks a ton
Nice video, sounds as sweet as now.
hel sey thanks for Comment and watching.
FairPlay butty good vid mine smokes on start up if left for more than 3 days but only a little if I’m using it day to day I see nothing
It's incredible how much digging i have to do just to learn why my engine is burning oil and how to fix it or at least try to, every mechanic shop wants to charge me over 1k euros or tells me to just scrap my car.
I want to save my little focus, they just don't care i guess
Started alright too 👍
hi chris. it starts much better now. i think the wet plugs from the oil was part of if not all of my issue since i rebuilt the head.
Very helpful
Great video. I have heard that it is better to change valve stem oil seals by removing head so you can properly clean the ports etc. Is this true or standard practice to do these seals like this on all engines that you can? Thanks
Late to the party, but where did you get that valve compressor tool from? Got mine to do on a st150
My car emits blue smoke after 20 min of driving, always when moving off in 1st gear, I am assuming is the valve seals as the oil heats up it gets thinner and sneaks past the seals.
Any chance u could link the compressing tool you used ? Thanks
Hi Steve. Do you carry out work on vw transporters need stem seals changed
would love to know what that tool is called
Really enjoyed that Steve. Need to do the same on my Clio. You make it look easy 😎 will give you a follow on insta!
thank you very much. the power of editing makes it look easy lol. was about a 12 hour job over 2 days. thanks
Spark Plug Steve not surprised at all. Even getting that rope in must have taken ages! Highlight was the salmon though 😂
TrackIt haha I almost edited it out. I do lots of stupid things and don't put them in cos I'm a Muppet.
Hi Steve My car have same problem stems valves Can you help me to face this problem
Hi Steve, where online can I purchase that valve compressor tool?
I got it off ebay but it was a good few yrs back now.
Did the victor reinz seals resolve the issue yea?
No. The car is long gone now but the guy I sold it too replaced with genuine Ford and problem solved.
Hi do you have a link to the valve spring tool you used please

Thanks for that mate
What happens if you don't do them steve??
If your seals have gone bad and you don't change them you will be burning oil.
When they say you have ring issues they probably wernt on about your car.
Driveway Developments maybe they weren't oops.
Euro car parts have caused us nothing but pain
your a brainy guy steve im just watching some old videos I haven't seen
