engines do not stop suddenly caused by a valve sticking "closed". the valve
sticks open. That's the way things are. A junkyard engine that is corroded will have valves stuck open and closed and partially open and partially closed. It will also have pistons corroded tight and bearings corroded tight. The original post said he had ****a**** valve stuck. Than means the valve was stuck open. Hi "JAXAshby" skrev i en meddelelse ... dude, have you **ANY** idea what a camshaft does for a living? --------- What you mean is, that if the valve can't be pushed open, the valve rod will bend ? Or whatever pushes the valve will get stuck or break. P.C. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Cyber-Boat/ |

dude, that is not the valve stuck closed but rather the lifter stuck.
Different problem. besides, the original poster did not say he had a bunch of valves stuck (how would he know if a valve were stuck closed? he couldn't for the engine wouldn't turn over, and if perhance it could be foreced over it would break the valve train, making for lots of other and obvious problems.) dude, have you **ANY** idea what a camshaft does for a living? Obvisously not. go back and play with your ticker toys. Why do you insist on insulting people, Assby?. I've seen valves stuck closed with bad hydraulic lifters. Absolutely. Esp in engines that have sat for long periods. Greg Sefton |
JAX, thats enough

Dude you better get a grip, a shot cam or lifter doesn't make a valve stick closed. New cam, no problem....you mean valves not stuck anymore? A miracle, not really....it wasn't stuck to start with, Jeezus christ...do you people actually believe the **** you write? JAXAshby, I don't know why you waste your effort trying to convince morons??? It was stock till I losen it with my new camshaft ER-ER-ER... SCRATCHIN MY ASS.

OK Brian, settle down now. No need to be nasty. Most of these guys
don't even remember solid lifters and are not as smart as you, me and Jax. Ron |

Terry, you're right, I'll wind up in Hell acting like that. I'm sorry guys no intentions to offend anyone but JAX MADE ME DO IT when I read his post. "dude, have you **ANY** idea what a camshaft does for a living? Obvisously not." That was some funny ****.

Dazed and Confuzed, A little pointer for you, valves used in marine engines are made of stainless steel with silicon impregnated bronze valve guides and DO NOT RUST. There go's the moisture theory out the window. On Fri, 05 Sep 2003 07:32:12 -0500, Dazed and Confuzed wrote: JAXAshby wrote: dude, have you **ANY** idea what a camshaft does for a living?

I have. easier in fact to get moving than one stuck open. -- I'd rather put more life in my days than put more days in my life...... and if the motor stops with that valve in the open position and there is any moisture from condensation or gasket leaks, do you think that the valve closes and then rusts? If you then turn the motor over, the valve spring may not be able to break the rust and close the valve.
