Oo0martelle0oO Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 Does any one have a recommendation for cleaning carbon off valve stems? Im rebuilding a head and the valve are caked with carbon. I tried a wire bush tool and my dremel with carb cleaner, it didnt even make a dent.

Lustalbert Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 A dremmel uses to fine of a wire in the wheel to do jack shit. Use a 4" wire wheel in a drill, preforably a stainless steel wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
