New Tool time!
i bought a 150mm wire brush for my bench grinder just for cleaning up the valves (£7 tool station)
it made light work of cleaning up the exhaust valves of the carbon deposits
on the stem side i only cleaned up to the valve guide so to minimise damage to the stem
valves are ready to be ground in once the heads pressure tested
Warning though!
always use goggles with these and any grinding wheels
your eyes are important to you
