I have now had them stuck and un-stuck 6 times today. It does seem like they are SLIGHTLY easier to beat down now, but still stuck as hell. I am going to keep messing with them and try a little acetone up top in with the MMO. it is so scummed up that the MMO just sits up top and does not even run down the stems. I have been blasting the stems when down from the bottom so as to try and pull the cleaner up in to the valve guides when I bump them back up with the starter. I will keep working them 'till my awesome vintage Valve spring tool (the RIGHT one for my inline, not the one I have for SBC's) comes, then pull them out and clean the shit out of everything! Stuck vavles are AWESOME!......
