I *think* I've found the source of my occasional stink and oil loss. (see

I don't see people talking about valve seals on 3B's much, but I found that 3 of them were loose, and 2 weren't even seated on the guides anymore, they were just floating up on the valve stem!!
Sadly, I couldn't get my hands on 8 seals, SOR only had 6 and I couldn't find ANY suppliers. I replaced 5, ruined one, and reused the tightest fitting of the old ones.
, I know.
Here are some pics, its an easy job...
#1 remove rocker cover and rocker ass'y.
#2 rig up a hose from your air compressor and set it to 90psi or so.
#3 i used a spare fitting from my compression tester set, if you do so, remember to drill out the schraeder valve inside it though.
