    valve question

    When I pulled the head, I can push on the intake valves on #1 and #2 on the combustion chamber side and they budge a little. I assume if they were seated properly and tight they wouldn't budge when I push on them. They also have weak compression. Is this maybe old, weak springs? i think I am going to take it to a mechanic, have them take out, and replace the valves and springs on #1 and #2. Or maybe just the springs. Anyone know what a shop may charge for something like that?

    You're right, the springs are gone. However, good practices say you should replace the entire spring set as the others aren't too far behind.

      should the inner and outer springs be changed or just one or the other?

        Nevermind about that question...the inner and outer springs come together from bikebandit.com
