Nice tool. I did the old trick of laying the tire in front of another car and driving up the sidewall just enough to reach inside and pull the old valve stem from there. Luckily after pulling the new stem through with pliers the bead popped back enough so it sealed when I refilled the air from a compressor. It worked on one car tire and one wheelbarrow tire.
This video popped up on popping the bead.
Anyone who is going to change out a valve stem probably has all the equipment to do it this way
