Ghetto Cam Tensioner Tool

When the POS plastic tool breaks after 5 seconds, sometimes you need to get creative.
Here I took the bolt (which I'm sure could be found easily) a small socket and a large socket. A little cutting, a little welding and back in action. This tool wedges in just under the slider as to not damage it.

Could be made much better and cleaner, but I didn't want to invest more than 20 minutes. Wis I could get my $20 back for that crappy tool!

I also made a Audi valve removal tool using a super generic valves spring compressor that cost 10 bucks, but honestly I wonder what car if would actually work on without mods!
Sweet bent valves, I just love interference engines! (sarcasm)
