Re: [T3] Diagnostic help: Loud popping...Āvalve p roblems?


<x-charset iso-8859-1>AVP oversizes the seat, chills it, and installs
it in an undersized head opening.
Staking only has a local effect, and they tried
it and changed. Maybe they do a all-around staking,
too, I forget. My '80 Vanagon dropped it's valve
seat. Theirs don't drop. They specialize in
T4 engines. http://www.avp-worldwide.com/

What's the good fix? A type 4 customer of mine had this happen a couple of
years ago in his 72 1700.
