Help,
I have sticking exhaust fvalves on 3 and 4 which I can determine by checking compression and looking through the spark plug holes.
I got them freed-up by reseating them with a screw driver and small hammer, but looked for a better fix.
My first solution was to put Marvel Mystry Oil in the gas and fuel.
It has not provided a fix, every time I shut down the engine for sereral hours, the problem reoccurs.
Does anyone know if there is a better lubricant or method of fixing this?
I do not want to teardown the engine, as otherwise it runs like a champ when all the valves close as they should.
Thanks for any ideas.
