Phat VR6 3 Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 How does everyone else do it? Ive been using course then fine paste. wiping stark with different cloth to what im wiping the cutting paste off with. oiling up each time But im still getting fine scratch's on the valve stems (bit that runs inside the guide) Does this matter? doesn't seem to matter what i do i still scratch them!what technique does everyone else use?Cheers Tom Link to post Share on other sites
cabrioman 6 Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 why you putting paste on the steams ??? should only need to put it on the valve to lap them back into the valve seats ??? Link to post Share on other sites
