in the middle of installing my new 100cc bbk. there is about 1/8 inch build up around valves. i'm reusing stock head and would like to clean this up before i put it back together. what will break that up? can i use break cleaner or carb cleaner? wd40? idk, give me some ideas that will make this go fast. thanks.

wd will loosen it up , I would get some lapping compound and lap the valves . Its quick and simple if you need some compound I can send you some pm me with your address .

John worked very well, thx... lapping compound? is that for seating new valves? i don't plan to do that. at least not anytime soon anyway.

you have the head off it would be a good refresh for the valves and seats .

ok, so wd40 worked with some very fine sand paper. however i just read a comment on youtube that said over cleaner works. my old 44mm piston and cylinder still look to be in great condition. i'm going to get a can of oven cleaner for those parts. not sure what i am doing with it yet. probably just keep it as a spare.
