I recently conducted exhaust valve wobble tests on my Cessna 150's Lycoming O-320-E2H. Here's a step by step on the process.

It’s great that you know how to do that maintenance. And equally great that your A&P works with you so you can do it.

Thanks! Great technique! Also keeps the retainers from being magnetized.

You stated the maximum allowable clearance (wobble), is there a minimum clearance? My understanding is these have a tendency to get carbon build up causing the exhaust valve to stick, seems like this would be a good way to spot that as well. Great video, thanks!

There is a minimum. I forget exactly but it’s around .010” or so. Good point. If it were less than that you could investigate further and consider reaming the guides to clear out carbon coking.
