Omega General Help / Re: valve seal replacement

« on: 23 April 2009, 20:51:59 »

Hi all
regarding doing the seals in situ, we have made an adaptor for screwing into the plug hole to put the cylinder under compression, the piston will be turned up to the top by hand and kept under pressure, if a valve was to drop, hopefully the piston wont let it, and we can retreve it. If not then it will mean the head comes off.As regarding the tool to remove the valve spring were going to call in at Vx to see if they have a tool for this if not we'll make a service tool to do the job. thanks for your replies , and will let you know how it goes
regards- martin

Omega General Help / valve seal replacement

« on: 22 April 2009, 20:51:47 »

hi,
we have new valve seals to fit as the car is blue smoking on start up.
Is it possible to change the valve seals on a 2.6mv6 (01)without taking off the cylinder heads, by means of putting  1 cylinder at a time under compressed air to keep up the valves whilst the bucket and spring is removed, then remove the old valve seal and replace it with a new 1 and re-build up the valve assembly, then onto the next 1. has this been carried out before ? . this will save us a full cylinder heads stripdown.
regards martin.
