Stuck valve now what?
Hi All
Particularly you guys with Ford Flat Heads, what do you do when you have a stuck valve that is stuck all the way down. Had three stuck exhaust valves but only one was down the two partially open valves could get them moving up and down a little and squirted them with the acetone and ATF and they came out but one is all the way down. Don't want to damage the valve train so I'm looking for ideas.
Only thing I can think of is to weld a bolt to the head of the valve and use the impact wrench to get it turning. Then use the bolt and a large socket and some washers as a puller buy screwing a nut on the bolt shaft.
If this was a Chevy it would be simple just drive the stem end down with impact hammer.
Cheers Phil
