the one I was working on got messed up. So at this point I have no alternative, at least for that one. I talked to the dealer and the mechanic said I could go by them and he would let me use their tool. I think I'll just change that one and leave the rest alone. I have to pick up a gasket for the turbo so he cut me some slack.
But, thinking I had to change them, at least from some of the other posts I've read, it was recommended. And since I posted my last post, I just finished taking out all the valves and springs out of all the cylinders.
So... a lot of wasted time? >:(
By the way, the tool zdmack made for the spring compressor works like a charm.
With some of the frustration so far, I don't even know if I want to attempt changing the chain guide and tensioner. I gotta get mobile. One heckuva learning experience though.
