How to Tell if the Valves Of Your CH
Are In Good Shane

The fit of the valve head and the
valve scat is usually tested by coating
the valve head with Prussian blue pig
ment and pressing it In place against
the seat. The valve is then turned
about one-fourth Of a revolution and
removed. If the valve and seat are a
proper fit the entire seat will show
blue, though if the valve head and seat
do not fit only the high spots or ridges
on the valve seat will receive coating
of blue. In such an event the grinding
valve head has an even bearing all
over the seat.
