No, he is talking about pulling the valve springs off and replacing the valve guide seal.

I have the seals in my garage, but I haven't gotten around to doing it. I don't know if the seal puller and installer is necessary, but if you can get the springs off and on, I am sure you can pull them out with pliers or something. Just make sure that you compress the cylinder that you are working on to prevent a dropped valve.
