Hi Everyone,
I finally got the head off of my motor and have two questions. The first is I have 4 stuck valves. They are STUCK! How does one get the valves unstuck without damaging anything?
Next? I rotated the engine until the cylinders were pretty much at the same level and put about 1/8 of an inch of 30w oil in each cylinder. The next day, about 90% of the oil leaked out of #3 and after about 3 days, most of the oil had leaked out of #2 and #3. #1 and #4 have no noticeable leakage. How bad is this? I wasn't able to do a compression test before I got the head off due to the stuck valves. The cylinder sleeves don't look too bad but I am trying to decide how far I go in this repair. What are your thoughts?
Thanks!
