Hey gang, I'm in the middle of changing my valve stem seals tonight, and after a tumultuous battle I've got the keepers back into place on valve #1, cylinder #1, but I can't tell if they're seated correctly. I've never done this before, and I want to make sure I've got this correct before moving on to the rest of the valves. Basically, the keepers are where they belong, but I can still push down on the spring compressor and have the keepers move down the valve, independent of it... but they seem to "catch" at the top, preventing the spring from pushing any further up. This is correct, right? I made a quick video to demonstrate: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7_bZL8NqxIAZlotUzJRSGRXb0k/view?usp=sharing I'm paranoid and this is driving me nuts. If a couple of folks could weigh in that would be great -- then I can keep going. Thank you!!
