will this tool work on the cylinder head and camshaft still on the car?

also, you can rotate the engine til the piston is down. feed a bunch of clothesline or rope in the spark plug hole, then rotate the piston up until the rope is pressed against the valves. you wont need an air compressor for this, and you cant lose the valves in the cylinder
1079224
On some models it works but you have to make your own adaptors it could get kind of hard to use on newer model cars it looks like the design its for older models.

most likely you will have to remove the camshaft. they are commonly mounted over the lifters. if the valves are opened by rocker arms, you can probably leave the cam in
1079226
Yes it will. But once you get the valve spring keeper and spring the valve may fall into cylinder. You may be able to put air from an air compressor to hold it/push it back up or raise piston to top dead center or TDC for the cylider to maybe hold valve in place. If not valve may fall into piston cylinder. I just looked on craigslist for an extra set heads, rebuilt it and than removed and replaced heads due to my vehicle had a blown headgasket. Over all its a great tool for overhead cam heads. Hope this helps.

Yes it will, just find the right pivot point, cover holes in head,as not to drop keepers in. And get to it!! TIMES A WASTING

For the 98 honda civic, base bolt pattern did not match with or without the camshaft. It is still usable.

yes the tool will work but the spark plugs my still break and you my still need the older style of spark removing tool to get the rest of the plug out. I have been a ford tech for twenty years I haven't had a mustang break plug yet . only 5.4l Eng. in expeditions and f series vehicles . hope that helps

My son actually used this tool on my 2000 jetta. He said it would work on the 2003 motor. He has been an auto tech for 12 years. We think the tool is made in Germany.

Probably not. High side valve core is too big and gets hung up in tool's ball valve. The low side tools shaft is too long and hits the engine. See my 2 star review for description of these problems.

Although this tool is not a necessity for this engine, it will work on it and it does save a lot of grief for removing the plugs.

I used the tool on a 1997 ford explorer 4.0 sohc worked grate. You can do the head gasket without tacking out the engine.

yes this works on most cars to access and clear engine, srs, abs, transmission codes

The oil pump shaft is different and the gear teeth might not mesh with camshaft

I used this wrench for my 1999 Buick LeSabre only. I do not have any experience using it with the Camry.

It might work depending on how damaged or distorted your threads are. I used it to correct distorted threads in a steel cranks shaft from a Honda Civic. Although the tap is 4130, it's still pretty soft compared to a regular tap. This tool allowed me to start from the back and make multiple passes to correct the threads so they were true to the center line. Then I drove a regular hardened tap from the front down into the crankshaft for a final clean up of the threads (keep in mind you shouldn't do this step with your head.)

More than likely, but that is a old protocol. This tool only does Global scan tool data, which means you only get to look at certain engine pids (perimeter IDs). It should work on that chrysler which has the connector for the scanner under the hood, but you will only be able to see if the vehicle has any engine or transmission codes since it is not a CAN (controller are network) vehicle. You can only look at live scan data if the vehicle uses can for communications.

This style of tool should work with any pin-style valve (like a Schraeder) but will likely NOT work on the ball valve GM and a few other manufacturers like to use. For those, the system has to be recovered to relieve pressure and the entire valve assembly is replaced as the ball valves do not have a removable core.

shine a flashlight onto where the carb adjustment screws are . if it looks like this tool will work then yes., the other type looks like a spline and this tool will not work.

yes it will as long as it has the 3 valve per cylinder configuration - but beware this product will have trouble unless you also get the cam phaser lockout kit and re program the computer - I do a lot of these swaps and that is the only way to get perfect fixes everytime without replacing the whole engine with a new one (not rebuilt - NEW) livernois in michigan sells the program

As with most universal tools it won't do everything. However it will do a it's fare share, it is a great tool and no auto workshop should be without one! As for the different model numbers, I think they change as they are upgraded over the years. Check out the Lisle web page and ask the question, I'm sure you'll get the correct answer.

No, this tool will not help you with your key. It only scans trouble codes and resets some (but not all) cars' oil service, airbag, and check engine lights.

This tool is not designed to work on all 4.0L engines. It will work on most 4.0L SOHC engines. You may incur problems on the rear cylinders on some models due to clearance. The correct tool is the 303-581.
