I recently did a valve job on my M103.

Year: 1989
Model: 300SE
Mileage: 170Kmi
Oil Consumption: 800 miles/qt
Oil Leaks: Slight
Any top end work: New guides, faced valves and seats, new seals. I did this work in my auto repair classes at the local community college. I bought the parts and did all the work myself. This includes pulling the head, the machine work, replacing the head.

The guides were worn but the valves were fine.
