OTC Roller Follower Tool

[Andy Rubalcaba]

One word of advice for those trying to install their roller followers back in and are fed up with base circle not lining up ( seriously, what a tedious process! ), take note of this person's video and if needed and if you have the collar of the bulb end of the roller follower almost up and over the lash adjuster, get a flathead and gently leverage it from the bulb part prying into the camshaft lobe. again this is light pressure, no jerk movements, this saved me some time on a few of them and I wish I had seen the video sooner!

Planning on using this technique instead of the tedious and slow process of using the OTC tool. Any possible issues doing it like that?
