Does valve order matter if you use new seals and lap them.

I am redoing my head and it would be nice to soak all my valves in the carb cleaner basket at once but I don't know if it matters which hole they were in since I am getting new seals and I am going to lap them as well.

Yeah, I am doing the lap too but I still am keeping them in the same order. I did get a cheap valve spring remover from Amazon and using a drill with a screw hook made it fast to use. Don't know why people rent these for $75 when I bought a spring compressor for $23 that works great.

I like the idea of that valve spring compressor with the battery powered drill.
Here are some photos of a simple effective valve spring compressor that I made for my Yamaha FZ1: Last edited by arkie6; 11-15-2018 at 10:56 AM.. |
