Can it be done with 1 tool Stu or do you need 4, 1 for each cylinder?
I've done it & used it before, but I couldnt remember if you can do it with just the one, which I'd figure not.
Ask about for the tool as its likely you could hire it from a Vaux mechanic or well equipped garage.
1 tool does one valve.... you do them one at a time from the dizzy to the cam belt end. take out the follower and move along one.
the tool is aobut ?10 a go. might aswell buy one.

We used a set of 4. I remember that.
4 would make life much much easier
