Can anyone suggest where I might buy the Valve Bucket Depressing Tool 2078?
You know, the lever you use to depress the valve buckets in order to remove
the valve adjusting shims. I have gotten by for years with a makeshift
appliance and am ready to spend money on the real tool. Prices and websites
would be greatly appreciated!
