This is by far the best head cleaning tutorial I’ve found! Currently rebuilding a 450 grizzly and was looking for a better way to clean the carbon growth.
Well done video on cylinder head cleaning, was just what I was looking for on how to best clean my Kohler cylinder head on my CV493s engine when I do the head gasket this winter :-)
Glad it helps, just have to be patient it takes several cleanings and scrubbings to get them clean. I have another video on piston cleaning you should watch also
@@MowerMike I watched it right after this one Lol; it showed most of what I did not do well the first time I did a head gasket a couple of months ago Lol.
Marvel Mystery Oil in the gas prevents this type build up and gives extra power and smoothness. It is really Miracle and everyone that uses it just loves it.
I may have missed it but did you check the valve lash (and possibly need to grind the end of your valve stems) after lapping your valves as the clearance has shortened after the lapping process?
On this point, You can use the old stem seals to help alignment when lapping then swap them out for the new ones after a real good cleaning of the head itself.
@@MowerMike Anyone that can even consider supporting a man like donald trump as the next president clearly doesn’t deserve my support in any way. He is clearly guilty of directing and inciting an insurrection as well as fraud. (Defrauding the public out of owed taxes). He is clearly unstable and only wants to be just like Putin! He wants to be a dictator and you support him. SMH

Well thanks. Was actually the first time I had cleaned one. (Don’t tell anyone)

Snake Oil Salesman!!! ;)
@@MowerMike lol !!...... it's one of the most legit products I've used, or I wouldn't say it ....
Beautiful work man , is there an alternative to use something else instead Valve grind compound , because i cant find to buy in my country
Hmm good question. I bet some fine sand with some water would work, just make sure to clean it before putting it back on.
@@MowerMikeI bet that’s too abrasive. I would prefer toothpaste with baking soda over sand.
Try using sifted wood ashes. tis what I use to clean my teeth combined with tooth paste.....
Watched all your Kawasaki videos now lol. Youre a big help brother stay strong in 24 TRUMP!!
Haha thanks glad to help.
Question, did you actually turn the sonic cleaner on or just use it as a soaking tub cuz I didn't hear the white noise from it...jus sayn.
Yes I did zap it
Strong work, sir
You must have missed the last 3 minutes of the video
@@MowerMike no I watched the whole thing…but I won’t be dumping cleaning acid in my yard any time soon
Hi.
On modern common rail turbo diesels would you advise to spray Hylomar onto gasket prior to installation?..
I have no idear. Good luck
you linked the Valve compound 2 X’s and no Link to SPRING compressor
I may have missed it but did you check the valve lash (and possibly need to grind the end of your valve stems) after lapping your valves as the clearance has shortened after the lapping process?
Yep after you install the heads you always need to check the valve lash. Check out my Kawasaki head install video to show how to set the lash
Those aren't valve guides...they are valve stem seals. The guides are the long barrels that the seals press onto.
Excellent correction, thanks for the note
How do I replace a piston do you have a video that could help
I have a few replacing piston rings. It will show you the process, is just a clip
@MowerMike thank you so much your videos are amazing I am watching it now and you make it easy to fallow along thank you so much
lmao,, how'd that grass turn out chief??
I don't think I'd trust a 2"x4" and sandpaper to flatten a head surface. There are some pretty twisted 2"x4"s. Maybe table saw surface would work.
That is some solid advice thanks!
Mike - would you ever do a chest waxing for charity? Or when are you going to work shirtless? We want to see it
Hmmm no, you will just have to use your imagination
Mike, it's not valve guides, it's valve guide seals. It is better to lap the valves before you install the seals.
Damn that is a good point.
On this point, You can use the old stem seals to help alignment when lapping then swap them out for the new ones after a real good cleaning of the head itself.
Those were valve seals not valve guides
Am sure you can find more wrong statements than just that in the video lol
@@MowerMike lol
Actually, they are valve SEATS. ;-)
