| Post subject: | heat riser valve |
The heat riser valve on my 65 valiant 170 is stuck (What's new). Anyway, I've tried to free it but it's being stubborn. I'm going to upgrade to a super six soon but until then, which position should I leave it stuck in? Towards the block or away from it? Any input? Thanks Alex Orionsax7@cs.com |

(normaly when the spring gets hot it unloads and the weight pulls it open) Iodine can also help free them up |

The "flap" or round counter weight will move towards the block, rotate it counter-clockwise. DD |
