Check your inbox. Way too much instruction for this type of communication.

Read the manual and highlight specific questions.

Valve stem seals are mostly pointless if the valve stems are worn. If you're past 200k miles, the engine will perform much better with a full valve job. Plus, these valves are really difficult to free up without special tools or a homemade press.

You won't know if you "need" to bring it to a machine shop until you pull it off and check it for flatness.


You could do lots "while you're in there".... it gets expensive fast.

What's your budget?

How many miles on the engine?
