Rotax valve Depressor Tool failure
in General Tech Discussion
5 years ago
I'm stripping my 912uls down to clean and refurbish and to remove the valves to clean i purchased the Rotax tool for depressing the valves to remove the collets. I successfully removed the valves from Cylinders 1 & 3 but when I came to cylinder 2 I removed the intake valve but before I could remove the exhaust valve the bolt sheered as can be seen in the pictures. I has set the piston to TDC to remove pressure from the springs. Has anyone had this experience before? i'm going to attempt to remove the sheered end from the cylinder head with an easy-out but very worried i'll damage the threads! anyone got any advice?
