In Reply to: Farmall B valve issue posted by Dave H (MI) on December 10, 2012 at 09:32:33:
My 300 had a stuck engine and a sticky exhaust valve when I got it, and I loosened up the valve well enough so that it popped back up after I hit it with a mallet. When I put it on the tractor the rocker arm pushed it down further than I had been with the mallet and it stuck again. I had just put a new head gasket in the tractor and did not want to pull the head and have to buy another gasket, so I was worried. I was able to pop the valve back up by using a flat pry bar on the underside of the valve spring retainer disk or whatever the big flat thing on top of the spring is called. I pried gently and I do not know if this was a good idea or not but it worked for me. Then I squirted ATF on the stem and turned the engine again, popped the valve up again and repeated for a while till it got so it didn't stick anymore. I put it together and have put probably 30 or 40 hours on it since then with no problems from the valves. Zach
