I am replacing the valve stem seals in my M42. I have an opportunity to lap the valves, but this would be my first time doing so. I am fearful that I can do more harm than good by potentially getting some of the lapping grit/compound in the seal or on the stem.
Is this a pretty valuable step?
also, should I lube the valve stems with assembly lube or is oil fine?
this is a crosspost from m42club.com. I sometimes forget how dead that forum is... it can be a week until I get a response, despite the great content that does go through there.
