YS-91 almost done

[Ken Thompson]

Thanks Bill,

I have that problem solved and now it's the bearings, new one's are ordered.

Sooner or later, I'll get it running right.

      Ken: I read your first paragraph, and passed out in front of the computer!  Don't ever say anything like that again!! ;-)   Bill Glaze

        Well folks, 

        This is what I did, I pulled the head and took it apart just like Mike Darr told me to do.  I didn't even lose the spring retainers.  
        I chucked the stem up in my Dremel and cranked it up on high, having some plumbers sandpaper handy I ran a strip of 100 grit on the stem until it shines like new!  That ought to do it!!  

        Not really, I did just like Verne told me too and used a # 11 and scraped it gently just until the rough stuff was gone.  I wiped the stems with a rag and am ready to re-install the valves.  I am going to use toothpaste to re-seat the valves and my question is, when I'm done with that can I just wipe the excess off or do I need to clean it with something special before re-assembly.

        Thanks in advance,
        Ken
