38 Flattie Valve stuck

[Frank L.]

Sorry about leaving out a few details.....

The engine ran a bit when we recieved it....on a couple of cylinders, due to ignition problems and stuck valves.

We now have the ignition problem sorted out.

Back to the engine.... I'm planning on just spraying the valves down with WD 40 and rolling the engine over by hand until the valves are working properly with no sticking at all.

From there close it up and run it up with tranny fluid/ oil mix to de-gunk it, flush with fresh 10W30 and see how it goes from there.

.....or would it be advisable to just take 'em out and do it right and lap the valves while I got on the bench?

I'll probably clean up the heads while I'm at it...they're a bit grungy.

Comments please!

Regards

BTW...We'll post picks as soon as we get a digital camera
