Default Need Valvetrain Install Help - Melbourne area
Alrighty, so the deal is I have to swap out at least one valve stem seal, and although I've observed the valvetrain swap a few times I have never done it myself, and I would prefer if somebody experienced could help out and make sure I'm doing everything right. If anybody can help out I would really appreciate it and I'll make it worth your time.

Possibly this Friday. Depends on when I can get a valve spring tool here. I basically just need to replace a valve seal (just not sure which one). I've got it narrowed down to 3 springs, so it shouldn't be too bad of a job. New valve seals are on the way.
