Re: [ST] What's that link to the cam shim removal tool?

[Kevin Byram <blubyu352@xxxxxxxxx>]

I bought a valve compressor tool for my old suzuki, which is shim over bucket. It hooks around the cam and a ridge on the outside presses against the edge of the bucket. Wonder if it would also work on the Triumph?

Before we move on entirely, I do most of my own wrenching and would like to
see the instructions for that low buck valve compression/shim removal tool
designed for the early ST. $130 is way too much for a tool I'd use so
infrequently. Given how much it's been raining up here in the Northwet, once
in a lifetime seems unlikely.



My Taurus SHO uses the same shim on bucket technology and Ford makes a hand
tool (kind of a two-prong lever/wedge) that's inserted between cam and
bucket to press the bucket down away from the cam lobe. Then a magnetic
pickup tool grabs the shim.



What's that URL again?
