valve spring changes without compressed air



at our Charlottesville GTG tonight.  I was taking to Garret about
changing my valve springs.  He said on the ones he did without
compressed air, he filled the cylinder up with string to keep the valve
from dropping down.  Any thoughts on that idea?  I guess I would put the
string in and then rotate the crank to put a little pressure on the
valve.
