1940 Super 8 Valve Work

Posted by todd landis On 2024/4/9 15:10:29

Attaching a couple photos, one showing a sample valve and what it looks like coming out of car that is in occasional use, and current gasoline. I had quite a time getting one exhaust valve out, really gummed up. Other picture is of some sort of lock washer that seems to go between the top of the valve spring and the block. One is missing on one spring. Is this a necessary part? If yes who sells them?, don't see on Max Merritt site? Only have the valves out of the first three cylinders so far.
