Tool for valve guide seals

Tool for valve guide seals without head removal.
Not a fancy tool but it works well.
I just put in the rocker arm shaft and use it as a hinge point.
If you make a tool, make sure it will not scratch the rocker shaft.

I want to withdraw my suggestion for my tool because although it worked for removing the keepers, I had a lot of trouble trying to install the keepers after changing the valve guide seal.

Still have not solved the problem.

Chrysler car company uses one very similar too.
I will modify mine to see if I can make it work better.
Needs a longer handle, and needs to push the spring down about 1/8 inch more.
I will report back.
