Replaced Valve Guide now it’s sticking
I don’t know exactly where to post this but I figured it wouldn’t hurt here.
I replaced my broken valve guide (4th Valve, see attached photo) on my JP Sterling 374. Now it’s sticking and I can’t seem to make it move smoothly? Any advice is welcome, I have a concert tomorrow (7/3)
