Any way to change a valve spring without taking the head off? I'm only changing one as a new engine is going in next month and just need it to last till then.
Thanks

Thanks that method worked. Bit of a fiddle to put the new one in. In the end i put the new spring in a vice, compressed it then put cable ties round it then cut them out when it was in.
