Is there such a thing as a air compressor powered spring compressor tool? Thanks.

 

The only thing that I have heard of is an adaptor to go in the spark plug hole to keep the valves up to remove the springs without pulling the heads.

 

I've seen some that you use a ratchet with, but none air powered.

 

2+2=?

If there are compressers which will accept a rachet, and there are pneumatic ratchets... Um... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

 

To me, wouldn't this be a lot easier to have an air powered spring compressor? Makes sense to me.

 

Air powered spring compressors have been around for 20 years that I know of, but all that I've seen assume that the head is off the car. Every reasonable automotive machine shop has one or more. They look like big C-clamps with the handle replaced by a pneumatic cylinder.
