Valve stem seals
Posted: Thu May 30, 19 9:17 pm
Hi need a bit of guidance, I'm in the process of rebuilding my 273LA.
After lapping the valves, I was reassembling the stem seals and this is where I'm a bit confused. The inlet seals fitted in a manner I'm used to but the exhaust seal just seems to sit there above the guide with no positive way to secure it and slides up and down a little with the valve...is this okay? I've tried searching the Web but drawing a blank.
TIA
Cheers Dave
