Hopefully the price has not gone up from all the demand. But whatever the price its still cheaper than the shop.

I've used both and have both. If you were to have only one, the Island tool would be a better choice. But, I have to agree with cata, you can do just fine with the factory tool.

I like to slide it up and down rather than side to side, to gauge tightness. The Island tool allows that since it's longer.

any word on the island tool as supplied by Pelican?

I'm due for a valve adjust, but the car is curently snowed in, so if it means awaiting a week or two no big deal.

Glenn,
Are you still selling the "Cool Valve Adjustment tool" ?
If so I would like to purchase one from you. Could you please PM me?
Thanks,
Paul

I dont think there is a latest...The maker of the tool does not accept PM's so you cant order from him. I have not heard any word as to Pelican suppling the tool. NOW WHAT?

Wow - the thread is back! (if not the tool itself...) This must the longest lasting thread ever.

Oh yeh -- if they are back -- at Pelican or wherever, I'll take one. If it involves a ferry boat ride - let me know...

Yeah, sorry guys, I've been sitting on a a bunch of them for quite a while. . .. Sending out a few here and there. . . for those who were able to get a pm thru to me.

I haven't felt like advertising here until I could get Pelican to handle sales. But shooting for attractive pricing (so a reseller can make something for their time) has been a bit of an issue. The one time I shot for "Walmart pricing" half of the order needed rework, or tossed. (a real hassle)

Anyway, for those who want one, you can shoot me an email ; island911comcast.net

just put "valvetool" (or some such) in the Subjectline . ..and maybe your log-name here so I can be sure those who posted have first dibs. (though I expect that I have plenty to go around. . . .that ought to put this thread to rest for a while.
