You will need to pull thr carb, breather cover, compress the spring, extract the keepers, and pull the valve. A new valve will be sourced and will at minimum need to be lapped in, and valve lash set. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pylp 6 #53 Posted Wednesday at 10:07 PM (edited) Split the case right down to the crank to replace valves and retainers just wondering if anyone has a engine schematic for model K3415 spec 71128a and any good place to order valve kits Edited Wednesday at 10:07 PM by pylp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You do need a valve spring compressor, but they are not expensive and if you’ve got enough mechanical skill to open an engine, they you’ll have no trouble.
