Other than the spring compressor and fitting for the spark plug hole, was there any other special tools that would make the job go easier?

Yeah, I forgot to mention (Tip 5) the slightly reamed out thick washer that I used to push the seal onto it's seat on the valve guide. The seals for my 116 engine have a steel casing with a small protrusion of sealing material that retains the tiny circular spring. A washer that just sits over the protrusion and right on the edge of the steel casing is dandy for pushing down hard to seat the buggers using thumbs and/or fingers. Beats the pricey pushing tool from MB.

So what are you going to do with all the money you saved?

Tip 6: Don't brag to the wife about it, as she will instantly find ways to dispose of said savings!
