Trying to remove cylinders one at a time for sandblasting off extreme grime and corrosion. Thanks cannot turn engine over to obtain top dead center for pistons for rocker arm removal. Has anyone removed rocker with pressure still on the valve springs??

I'm not sure what it is your working on. But I suppose you could fabricate a tool to hold the spring in a pressed condition to accomplish the task.
