Thanks chad for sharing. I've subscribed and really enjoy your videos. I own and fly a late model Cessna 150. I really have always had a crush on the J3 cubs. One day I hope to have the right season in life to afford me the time and resources to dedicate to a J3 restoration
I've got a better tool, longer bar comfortable to hold. Anyway I just put it on and when they are stuck I whop the tool with a mallet to pop out the retainers. Also not a bad idea to hit the valves with a mallet before doing this to shock them a bit. Use a magnet to take out the keys, don't bother with tweezers. Bottom retainers may get stuck so you'll need to work on them.
Excellent film footage and commentary.
No comments really are you sure did simplify that nice tool that was created alright God bless Chad keep up the good work bro

I like your tool idea thx
😁👍🏼 Thanks for watching!
Nice job. Thank for sharing. I'll make a tool like that soon.
Thanks for watching! Let me know how it works out for ya. 😁👍🏼
I’m sorry I made it out of 1/16th thick material. NOT 1/8.
I'm looking at buying a 1975 front loader this week, guy says it needs a trudel valve for the brakes. Would this be a similar process for the fix?
I’m not sure. 🤔
