Well I took my head to the machine shop and let them replace all the exhaust valves and seal. After I got it back, I try putting some solvent in the chamber to see if they would leak through the valves. Well It leak through easily everytime I spray some break cleaner in it. I call them back and ask them if that was normal, and he say yes and it shouldn't be a problem. Well guys is it normal for it too leak through like that? I though nothing was suppose to be leak through it? Help.

No that is not normal,if the valves leak at atmosphereic pressure then they will leak much more when cylinder pressures are high on the compression stroke.Either have them fix it or take it to someone else.

 

He told me that they vacuum check it just to make sure everything was good and the vacuum test turn out good. I could tell by looking at it that they surface the seat. This is a o.e.m replacement valves btw. Arggg...can't believe this..I might just slap it back on and call it a day. Would that be safe at all?

Considering that they also told you it was ok for the valves to leak fluid thru them I wouldn't care what else they said was OK...know what I mean.

 

Ye..I prob just take it back and watch them fix it.
