Valve Seal Replacement

R&R of Valve stem seals on my 78 trans am, but the process applies to all GM engines still running the factory style O-ring seals.

Some of the better back ground music I've heard in a video.
Great video. I love how angry you get at the thought of people not heeding your advice about dropping the valves lol.

Thanks for watching! Yeah I really wanted to emphasize ya really don't want to drop a valve!
Thanks for making the video. My old Pontiac needs some valve guide seals so I wanted to watch a video to make sure I place the seal correctly. Don't forget to remove the Schrader valve from the compression tester. I've always removed the keepers with a magnet since I tend to drop them.
Awesome video man. It's good that you reinforce the fact that folks need to be completely sure they don't drop the valve.

No you are correct about putting the seal on after spring, seems you've learned from error which in my opinion is the best way most of the time
nice choice of music bud...i like that...and thanks for the video.
Very informative.on my 454 big block that where im at on the 88 chevy. Almost done Gracias😜
outstanding!
Thanks for the information 👍
nicely explained. but i would like to suggest that u shouldnt place the camera on the side where ur hand interrupts the shoot. also u mentioned that we will hear the hammering sound to know whether the spring is jam or not. i cudn't hear it because of that music. Though I loved to hear it. It would suit best in the title ot the start. Cheers from India🇮🇳🇮🇳
Sweet engine . I'm sure it would smoke a tire flat haha
Awesome job, I did the same procedure on my 350, reinstalled the lifters, trying to adjust while running, now it smokes, could over tightening cause that??
Do you bring the cylinder up before you take the spring apart or just put air in it and go to town
how many pounds of air pressure
Aren't u supposed to replace the rubber bushing on the bottom of the spring as well the seal that's on the head
I saw you put on the o-ring, but not a valve stem seal on the first valve you did?

The heads from the factory aren't machined for the positive stop type or "Umbrella" seals that push down over the guide. These head still run the factory O-ring and shield set up.
Where did u order the parts
does anyone know? if after the cylinder in pressurised and piston gets pushed down to BTC will it stay there or will it keep spinning the engine over I ve got some thing called a torque convertor attached to my flywheel and I am worried about the crank sprocket / pully bolt slipping off or spinning loose if piston is pushed counter clockwise
Do you have to put each cylinder at the top before you compress with air?

I don't, however some people say it's better to because it makes it easier for the compressor to keep the chamber full.
Will any compressor work for this job

I use a 8 gallon compressor at home. I would not use one of the small 2-3 gallon of ones.
I don’t understand how this tiny oring keeps oil from going down around the valve stem through the guide, don’t you need the seal that covers the stems and guide to prevent this?

Pontiac's and any older GM engines never ran the "Postive stop"or viton seals that slip on tight over the guide from the factory, the O-ring and the oil "shield"is all there was, nowadays,when most people have their heads rebuilt, the machine shop will cut the guide to accept seals. In my casemy heads have not had the guide cut yet.

Question - Do you worry about top-dead center and then rotating to close for each before compressing the spring and changing the seals? Or just do it without worrying about closing? Thanks in advance.

Nope never. Some guys like to bring the piston to TDC if the rings are worn, other then nope, only when adjusting valve lash do make sure lobes are on the base circle
My car BMW Serie1 116d 2012 190k km. It is burning oil 800g every 800km. There is no liking There is no smoke at all, black o blue There is no oil in the exhausted Engine behave pretty normal what Flippen is?
你可跟劉曉非說一說。哈哈
