  Q: Is a professional the best choice for servicing valves, valve seats, and valve guides in a valve job on Dodge Ramcharger?

  A: Because of the nature of the task and the special tools and equipment needed for the task of re-facing the valves, valve seats and valve guides; the 'valve job,' is one, which is best left to the professional mechanics. A home mechanic can take out and disassemble the head, clean and inspect it a little and then take it to a dealer service department or an automotive machine shop of reputation for valve servicing. The service department or machine shop will take off the valves and springs recondition or replace the valves and valve seats, recondition the valve guides the department or machine shop will also check and replace the valve springs, spring retainer or rotators and the keepers as required and replace the valve seals with new ones the department or machine shop will also reassemble the valve components and ensure that the Installed height or the spring is correct. Also, the surface of the gasket of the cylinder head will be machined if it is found to be warped. Whatever the form of abuse done to it, once a valve job is done by an expert then the head looks as new. When it arrives back, the head should be cleaned before final reassembly back on to the engine ; there may be small particles of metal or abrasive grits left from engagements during the valve service or head resurfacing, by blowing compressed air if available, you should blow out all the oil holes and passages.
