LET THE LIGHT SHINE IN

LET THE LIGHT SHINE IN
When I’m struggling to see the valve keeper groves on an overhead cam head, with “bucket style” lifters, I attach a small flash light to shine thru the top of my air operated spring clamp. This puts the light directly in the area needed. This also leaves my other hand and mouth available for other tasks. A.K.A. swearing and trying to hold the keepers in place. Using axle grease on the inside of the keeper to hold it on the valve stem is also a big help.
