Engines Repair Tools Kit-Valve Spring Compressor Tool, Crankshaft Positioning Tool, Cam Phaser Holding Tool, Timing Chain Locking Wedge Tool, Crankshaft Pulley Bolt for Ford 4.6L 5.4L 6.8L 3V Engines

Used them to put a set of Ford Racng cams in my son's 3 valve mustng.

WORKED GREAT NO ISSUES

Everything worked perfectly BUT the valve spring compressor. Seems to be made just a little too long. Could not get the thumb screw to engage once it was hooked under the cam. There is a threaded ball that the thumb screw rotates on that I ground down until I was able to thread the thumb screw on to push the valve spring down.

This product looks like the tools you need to complete the timing job. The positioning tool had to be cut to be placed in correct spot. The tool for the valve springs has the wrong bend. The hand turning knob WILL NOT screw onto the tool when positioned correctly. This tool has frustrated me so much I am writing a review which I normally do not do.

I have used the valve spring compressor, phaser locking tool, and crankshaft positioning tool from this set for a timing job on my 2007 F250 5.4L 3V. The phaser locking tool had some kind of hard metal dross inside one of the bolt holes, it took a fair bit of work to clear the hole well enough to get a bolt through. The phaser teeth also did not have a good shape for engaging the phaser properly but with a little fiddling I managed to get it to a position that held snugly, The crankshaft positioning tool fit the shaft and key just fine and appeared to match nicely with the other tool I got as a backup. The valve spring compressor worked fine when it could actually be maneuvered into place. The foot was not huge or misshapen compared to another spring compressor tool I had, but it was thick enough and wide enough that it simply could not get into the more torturously-cramped valve spring locations. I probably could have ground it down a bit but the other tool worked better. All in all a lot of value but be prepared to remove some metal to make things work right.

Super easy to use. Definitely a must have if doing a complete timing job on a 5.4 liter 3 valve

Like others mention, the valve spring compressor I received wouldn’t fit at all. The solution was to simply grind down one side of the jig where the “Compressor rod” fits in, then it works fine. Have done three full timing sets with this toolkit now and pretty happy with it! Having to modify the tool wasted a little time initially, But for the price compared to the branded sets, I’d do it again for sure.
