An ET38 Geezus clip installer. Some folks just install them with their thumbs, but I could never figure out how one builds up their thumb strength to that degree….plus most Vincent owners seem to have shops littered with these clips.
Tool consists of a chuck, a piece of 5/16 stock (part A) with a bullnose on one end and a concave taper (to match the taper on the end of the valve) on the other end. Another piece of stock (part B) with a 5/16 hole bored through it. Part B is used to push the ET38 clip onto part A. Part A is held against the end of the valve and then part B is used to push the clip onto the valve. Wish I had figured this out years ago….
