1. Exhaust valve spring "caps" (score: 1): Author: YeOldEd@aol.com; Date: Sun, 2 Nov 2003 18:45:17 EST; I"ll be as brief as possible. On my 72, the upper, inner spring cap, (the part that holds the collets in position), is a forged part. I recently found one of mine to be fractured. Just enough remaine; /html/6pack/2003-11/msg00035.html (7,909 bytes)

I would first have the cylinder piston at tdc just incase the valve falls. The adapter is readely; /html/6pack/2003-11/msg00036.html (7,721 bytes)

I used the 'cord-in-the-cylinder' trick to get a reluctant head off my six. The way things usually go when I work on it, if there is a way to go wrong it will!

Edelstein" <pgedelstein@capitaltriumphregister.com>; Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2003 18:13:42 -0500; My clever solution to keep the valve from falling into the cylinder is crude, but easy and very effective. It works well on single spring valves, not sure about the double sping ones. Simply take a; /html/6pack/2003-11/msg00052.html (9,009 bytes)

If I were Jim, (did I really say that), the prize would go to Paul E; /html/6pack/2003-11/msg00053.html (7,215 bytes)
