<HTML>The valve surface is proud in the steam chest,,,If U machine it ,,,remember the valve MUST NOT run into a ''hill''as it reaches FULL TRAVEL <<<<< FULL GEAR ,,,that is ,,full ahead [or rev'],,,,,If necessary clean the corners by hand if necessary,,,, even w/ a chisel ,,,Now remember take only smallest amount off JUST enough so it dont leak ,,,,Youre talkn'n junkin a block,,, right here ,, NOW !! Dont mean to be harsh,,,only to get your FULLEST attention,, If U clean the valves on a shaper ,,make the cut 90 deg to the valve seat cut ,,they will polish in better,,,Hey Dave we need your fatherly comments on the FEEL of the pedal after a re/fit U can choose the words better than I Cheers Ben p/s Shaper tool chatter NOT allowed,,practice first,,,...</HTML>
