Mike,

There is a sparkplug adapter available that enables one to use commpressed air 
to hold up the valve.  I would first have the cylinder piston at tdc just 
incase the valve falls.  The adapter is readely available at an autoparts store 
in the KD brand or CAlvan (sp) brand tool display.  I think that Lisle brand 
also has the adapter.

I'm trying to come up with a tool that I can insert through the plug orifice 
to hold the valve in position while I change the caps.
(Check page 31 in the TRF Catalog).
