[QUOTE="jdbrusch, post: 356973, member: 25926"] BucKat,I was wondering what the valves look like when you pull the head off,are they fairly clean or do they have alot of carbon build up on them .The only reason the valve usually strip or break is from lack of maintainance.You seem to know what you are doing so this seems ok.I am wondering if maybe the valve bore is badly worn out and the valves are hanging up ,the manual does not give a wear limit on these and I am wondering if they can wear out to much,anyone?The bore the operating rod slides in may also be worn and possibly skipping over the top of the valve teeth but I have never seen one worn out this bad.Do you use a decent brand of oil,I have found that some oils produce larger amounts of build up than others,but even with bad oil you should not break the valves that easy.I only take mine apart once a year for cleaning and have only had to replace the left valve once in 8 years. :confused: [/QUOTE]
