Thanks for the follow up... I will have to get serious about putting new valve seals in the slow way with a bare bones tool requirement.

I found out I can use a bottom of the barrel valve spring compressor here... http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/showthread.php?t=125237

It's a job I've never done and don't want to get too far into until I have it worked out a little in my head. Guess it's time to get the parts list together and put it on the scheduel.
