Well one reason for "normal valve spring compressors to have a fork like opening is that it allows the adjustment of the fork to accommodate different valve retainer diameters. This one is home made to be used on a specific retainer size. the tool is placed with the ring over the retainer, and the screw on the valve head. The mechanic tightens the device then taps on the ring to unseat the keepers. the ring continues downward until the keepers are free to be removed. Once removed the spring is released until the valve spring is relaxed. at that point, the stem butt is below the ring , and the device is removed. I see no issues at all. This design, though limited to those the ring fits, would be more stable than the forked type. Jim
