Some Help Broke Down :(

<< < (10/22) > >>

dazza:
someone mentioned this could be oil? I think its just coolant from removing the head.

Should i test with some petrol/diesel?

dazza:
I leak tested the valves.
no 7 on the intake side is leaking a lot.

after 30 mins 1,2,4 and 8 on the exaust side have a small damp patch around the stems.

Its hard to see on the intake side.

Surely the 8 valves that hit the pistons need to be changed?

I tried blowing with the compressor, depending on where you put the air you can get bubbles but from a distance only 7 on the intake side has bubbles.

dazza:
The valves from the intake side are out. Is there a way to test if they are bent? Or should I just replace them all as they hit the pistons?

dazza:
need to start ordering everything thats needed. I cannot afford to buy from the stealers.

Any particular brands i should use? there are so many and the prices vary a lot.

would Elring be ok for the gaskets?

Octoparrot:
Roll the valves along a flat table, that'll easily show any that are bent. Elring are a good make I believe.
