How does this tool work? No instructions, everyone said it was simple to use, a little help. Thanks

You use the tool from the front of the block to install #2,3,4,5, then from the back of the block you install #1. You insert the tool close to the position you are installing then feed the bearing thru the holes in the block under the crankshaft to get the bearing to each position you are doing, fit the bearing onto the driver on the end of the tool, position the tool and bearing into the position number that you are on, then with the loose other part position it inside the first bearing hole to align the tool so it drives it in straight, then keeping it in place, use a hammer to hit the tool on the end to drive the bearing in place. Work from the farthest position first (#5) and work from there back out. Then flip to the other side and do #1. On the SBC, I believe the bearing saddle in the block is grooved 360 degrees, if so, there is no need to align the oil hole with a matching single hole in the block like you do with other engines. Center the bearing in the position you are installing then move on to the next one. If you have any doubt about the bearing depth, take a bent paper clip and insert it in each bearings oil hole to be sure its able to get in to the oil holes passage..When done install the cam expansion plug in the rear of the block to finish/seal it off.

This tool is for small block Chevy engines only. Its only for cambering's. The bearing tool will tap out the smaller bearings with the solid end attachment. The larger rubber covered one will expand when nut is tightened to put both sizes of bearings for camshaft into block. Do this carefully, the bearings can go in a little crooked and cam will not fit or fit too tightly to turn with hand tools. Best if it turns by hand.

I had no instructions. I uses some scrap wood and adjusted the drill setting until I had what I wanted. You may be able to find some information from the manufacturer on line.

I am not very familiar with it, I only use it a few times. I guess there are youtube video that explain things better that I would. Hope that helps.

I have no idea. We looked it and couldn't figure out how it works. There was very little instructions.

I am guessing that it did not have a user guide. suggest you review the 80 comments on the amazon website and you will likely learn as much. It is a simple tool. I notice Amazon has carried it since 2004.

I just opened my new tool, and it doens't strip anything. I've used the micro adjuster. I'm not sure if I have a defective grip, or if this is just crap. It's seems like most people find it useful, but I just consider this worthless.

As I recall, it does come with instructions but there really isn't much to it. It's fairly intuitive to use. Hope this helps.

You just have to follow the directions given on the instructions that comes with the tool i.e. you put the tool down the plug hole with the nut loosened and once down Inside tighten the nut and screw out. you might need a couple of attemps but it beats removing the head. I used it on a generator and it did the trick. hope it works for you. let me know if it did.Claude

I used the tool it came with and it took me about 10-15 minutes. If you have a drill with the right fitting (and can find it) it will go much faster....very easy.

Jason, I'm sorry that I don't have a good answer to this. Unfortunately I was forced to return the unit I purchased two days after receiving it. I hate to say this, but this tool is very substandard in quality.

Ya, I also received this tool. I have no idea what is this for. If you found out by now, could you please let me know?

I do not recall having a written instructions. It is pretty straight forward. Go to their website...there may be a tutorial and even youtube may have a video showing it being used.

I don't remember it coming with instructions but there is nothing to learn. This stuff is REALLY easy to use and super amazing. If you need to know anything about it just Google it or look it up on YouTube. There are tons of videos that will make you want some even more.
