Name this tool...

Thats what I was trying to do but you need too much force. It does not have a ratcheting locking mechanism to compress.
 
It is a valve spring lifter or compressor for in block valves. I use one on flat head blocks and L head motors in Jeeps. If it is small enough then it will work on small engines.
 
funny ... the first thing that popped into my mind when I looked at the tool was "Ball Joint Separator" /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif
