Hey everyone,
I've got a 1995 1.6L 16 valve DOHC MX3, I need to replace my valve seals.
i've got the tool to do it if you take the heads out.. can ANYONE post very precise and thorough instructions on how to take the heads out and replace the seals?
thanks alot!
(or if someone knows where you can get the tool to do it with the heads in, please leave a post as well)

the simpler way would be to return that tool and get a valve spring compressor that is used without removing the heads :wink:

I'd love to, but I can't find it ANYWHERE for the DOHC.. apparently its a different tool!
thanks though!
