Your obviously getting YouTube hits now as they deem it necessary to show me ads before your bid. Looking good man. Lapping valves is boring but a necessary evil.

Years ago when i was on 106OC, there was a guy rebuilding a engine and he said oh, lapping valves doesn't take long at all. Turns out he had put his suction cup stick in a drill and was covering the valves in paste and just spinning them up in one direction really quickly lol

The drill method isnt great to be honest. A seen it done before. On a little 1.1 tu engine it would do the job. On a performance or tight tolerance vehicle there is no alternative in my eyes than taking your time and putting some graft in properly.

It does look very clean in that engine bay
I'm on my laptop via mobile broadband so haven't watched the videos but; did you check the valve seat seals with paraffin before reassembling it all? That would be a killer.

Nah I didnt grant.
No need imo Those seats are perfect! Wishes for more power...

If you're confident then!
I think I would cry after all that work, to have compression issues rooting from valve seats. Looking forwards to seeing this up and running Member of the 99% warning or you're nothing club 2000 Moonstone 1.8 Meridian - Sold 2000 China 3dr XS - Dead 1998 Diablo 3dr XSI

I never test mine either no need. You can tell there ok. But thats my opinion.
Also though am looking forward to this running again. Do like the vids though.

Wouldn't say you can tell. I tested mine and had 2 with a slight leak even though the seats looked perfect. If you've got it apart, it would be silly not to really.

a 6 is a bit different to an xud, thinner valve stems.
need a part number? http://public.servicebox.peugeot.com/ and http://service.citroen.com/ will sort you out.
17-11-2014, 01:07 PM
Why would that affect valve seating?

you heard the phrase "tapper" right?
