I generally use a small aluminium drift and a toffee hammer and tap the valve stem to ensure everything’s fully seated after refitting the collets. Look for the polished edges to ensure the collets are the same way up as the where before removal. I also always turn the engine 720deg by hand and recheck everything when i’m done.
