    1. Its the piece from a compression tester, instead of putting the compression gauge on it you hook the air hose from your compressor to it. Autozone rents the comression tester if you need one.
    2. ^^^^
    3. Why oem? Why not vitton? seals just slide right off and when putting the new ones on I used a socket upside down and slid it over the valve to seat it evenly. The valves won't fall unless you loose air pressure in the cylinder

    So long as your compressor doesn't crap out and loose all air pressure you should be fine on the valves, just keep track of which two you are working on and make sure you move the air line to the next before you start which is obvious but I'm just saying double double check
