Got it tore apart. The valves are rough edges are all tore up and a lot of carbon build up. Starting to think I should just buy a new motor. |

Re: work horse
Take the valves out and check the seats. You may just need to replace the valves and regrind the seats, these motors are known for valve recession. Hopefully a valve job and you will be running again.

Re: work horse
Napa sells a compound call lapping compound its a gritty stuff that you put on the valve where it seats then you turn the valve in the head to seat it. Most the time that's all you need to do, usually the seats are in good condition. Before you get it look up lapping the valves it is really simple and when your done you should be able to see a nice sealing surface. Be sure to clean everything afterwards real well.

Re: work horse
Will that still require new valves? I tried posting some pics of them but haven't figured out how to yet.

Re: work horse
If your valves are as bad as you said in your 1st. they will probably need replacing. Take them out clean them up, maybe lapping will do it. If you do replace the valves have an automotive machine shop regrind the seats.Regrinding the seats is not that expensive.

Re: work horse
An easy way to lap the valves is to put them back in the head minus the springs, seals , and keepers. Take your drill and LIGHTLY install the end of the valve in the drill.Apply the compound between the valve seats and the head. With the drill in a SLOW speed apply light pulling pressure to the drill. Depending how how bad they are will govern the amount of time it will take.

Re: work horse
There is a tool to pull the clutch off, I think just about all the sponsors on this site have one. It's cheap enough to buy.
