Hi Grumpy
I followed your instructions putting the cotton rope in the cylinder and it worked like a charm! I remove the exhaust spring clip and spring. I wanted to send a picture which took but not sure how to put it in this message. I found what appears to be the Valve guide all the way out of the engine to tip of the valve. I compared this to the intake and the only the valve stem is sticking out of the block (I didn't take the spring off).
What is my next step? and tell me how to put the pix in in here and I will send it to you.
Thanks
Mike
