Valve Seals....Question
Hello All,
'91 Intercooled W250......460,000 kms.
On startup after sitting all night, rough running and 'blue'.....
After a few minutes 'blue' is gone and it smoothes out. Suspect valve seals.
Question can these be changed out with the cylinder air charged? thank you

Yes they can, And you don't even need to charge the cyl with air. Bring piston to tdc of cyl and have at it. There is an artical in the sticky at the top of the page to change out the valve springs. Give lots of good info on the job at hand....Good Luck
