Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Day 79 Stripped the head down this evening to inspect all the valves....and decide weather i want to replace them all or not.... Started by taking the top off the head, so the valves were easier to remove... Then used a valve spring compressor/remover to remove the...

Re: My Ph1 172 track sl*g Progress Thread im running a 225x6 belt, same setup as jay.....think anything around that size is about right

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project yeah realised that lol...........with the amount of other things that need buying paying out circa 150 quid for new valves is near out of the question!

some nice pics there ian......i need another camera sharpish :(

The lip on a valve shouldnt be this big should it? What options do i have....(stem seals are being replaced whatever happens) reuse valves? new valves? or re-lapping them? what sort of cost am i looking at for 16valves to get that done if thats the case? Also would they need re-seating into...

aye....i had this exact problem. I tried everything, cleaned idle control valve, and ran a fresh ground wire to the speedo cable sensor (back of clocks) as that is supposed to fix it.....but it didnt. I ended up getting a speedo cable from winston, and it fixed the problem! Hope that helps
