This is a review of the OTC Stinger Series Universal Pulley Holder which is item #4754 from OTC Tools. In this review, I unbox the tool, discover the included accessories, and discuss its operation. Then I proceed to test it out on two different applications. First, I use it to apply tension to the torsion spring between two camshaft gears. Second, I use it on a more typical application where I hold camshaft timing pulleys while tightening their bolts to their final torque setting. All in all, this tool is well worth the cost and made these jobs quick and easy to accomplish.
I used this tool several times while replacing a cylinder head and head gasket on my 1995 Toyota Tacoma. If you are interested in the 6 part video series that I produced while doing that extensive project, here is a link to the playlist. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUdzuNFw-6nlCcguzhKhFyHgQ6PEud5o1
