I could see an oxygen sensor socket being used also if you have a 3/8" extension. use them in the drill press like that tool billybobf mentioned.

shoot, an o2 socket and a small 3/8 stud shoved in the back if its not a through hole (or has a smaller hole), as that should fit in even the smallest of drill presses

Yesterday I used my MK1 strut nut tool to pull the valves on a single cylinder Triumph. It worked well enough for a one time thing.

Yeah, I have a drill press that I've used on this project over the years, but the 2 axis clamp is a pain to reset once it's removed.... so you convinced me to finish the tool I started to make. :-D

Arb, these are the folks I buy my VW and Porsche tools from, you can get the pieces separate, or maybe just get the adapter and use something to compress the spring.

#s 2036, 541/5 and 541/1 I believe these are the ones you want, but call to be sure.
