    Default Valve spring tester

    Hello all

    I am after a valve spring tester for a mate of mine that does a bit on old bikes.
    He is near Kyogle, northern NSW and I am near Ipswich in SE QLD.

    I am happy to buy and have it sent from anywhere. If you have a decent one that has been gathering dust in the shed and would like to sell please let me know.

    Thanks

    Steve

    Have you you seen this type, I don't know anything about them, although I have dealt with the seller many times over the years and they are not inclined to sell bogus products.

    Thanks for the reply. I have seen these on line but not in the flesh. It would appear that you would need some way of measuring travel for it to work. I hope to be in Adelaide in a few weeks for the grandsons first birthday.

    If any other readers have had experience with these I would be keen to hear.

    I found this o YouTube although it is not a "how to" it does show it's use I am guessing you could use a stainless rule or vernier caliper to measure the travel as well.
