    Absolutely. Just like I couldn't find my 12 point 10mm socket untill I borrowed one from neighbor and did the job.
    Then it showed up in a spot I looked 3 times

    Use a pressure washer? Water shouldn't scrape the valves. You'd need to clamp them down somehow.

    After the fact I thought it would be interesting to soak them in that fuel additive that's supposed to remove carbon. That would be a definitive result of it works or not.

    I can post a video link in a mo, those guys with the quicky head gasket change. They spell out the chain orientation very clearly.

    I'll watch but I think that's correct. Trying to put on other mark hits valves into pistons.

    That's real ugly in that engine.. ridges in head gasket get pressed out with torque of the head.

    Hope they didn't leave all that residue on the head and block. Also need to measure more then just down the middle of head for flatness

    Are you saying you have the motor back together and in the car? And have it running?
