DIY: 4age Valve Stem Seals.

[inertia]

Autobarn can get the Lisle but it'd cost $120... interestingly enough Kincrome have aquired Lisle, which is why the tool costs so much.

I'm doing digging on the Lisle tool... so far i've found forum threads with toyota's that they are using it on... supra 7mgte, older camry etc.

The dude has said $35usd for delivery of 2 of them... will try and confirm if it does 6mm valves...

I'm in if there's a group buy :-)

7M-GTE uses 6mm valves doesn't it? Same as 4AG...

Unsure, Lisle also make a kit with two of these tools in it, so that kit should theoretically cover most engines?

Though it is looking like the lisle is going to work, just need a bit more googling to be sure before laying down the $$$'s.

TOOL AVAILABILITY:

Figured this out due to a couple canadian guys.

Snapon.com ->
Click on 'Other Snap-on Sites (on right side of top menu bar) ->
Click on 'Snap-on Australia' under international sites ->
Type 'GA317' in the search, hit enter ->
You should end up here: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item....ia&dir=catalog

So yeah, just order it direct from snap-on.
