Well, I am waiting for my valve to arrive. In the mean time, I have the cylinder head off and the piston top is exposed. And what dirty little bu99ers they are! Crusted and flaky carbon deposit and all those goodies.
Should I clean them? If I clean them, I am concern that the carbon flakes falling between the piston and wall will mess up the cylinder/rings. Is it even worth cleaning?
Cheers,

Good to clean them while you have the head off. Just have a shop vacuum running while you scrape them to catch the crap.
Cool. I'll clean them up then. Thanks dgyver! :thumb:
