Pietenpol-List: What luck . . .

Hi Shad - I will certainly try that before I yank the head! I've run 100LL throughthe motor exclusively.Forgive a dumb question, please: pull the plug, remove the valve keeper, push thevalve into the cylinder a little bit, apply the valve compound around the seat(with what?), then move the valve against the seat in a circle? You knowa lot more about mechanicin' than I do.I have every intention of making Brodhead. The only thing that would screw itup is work, but hopefully it'll happen. Going to do my best.Thanks,Kevin--------Kevin "Axel" PurteeNX899KPAustin/Georgetown, TXRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: What luck . . .

Tdudley,You are indeed lucky! And I predict that, of all the new skills many of us haveto accomplish, you will most enjoy overcoming your welding deficiencies! It'sa great feeling to look proudly on your own work, even if it isn't perfect.Happy building,Gary Boothe------Original Message------
