One thing I’ve found out that helps lube the exhaust valve stem is putting a valve seal on exhaust and removing the rubber, it helps hold oil for the guide to get more oil and keeps guide in place Try it and you’ll see it works great 😊😊
Nobody had explained this like you, I've been looking for months and today I found your video, it's a master class what you've published friend, thank you for your humble contribution. I subscribed to your channel without thinking twice. I have assembled two of these engines for landmowers, the first time I was lucky and everything was fine. But the second time I assembled everything misaligned, the camshaft and crankshaft in the wrong position, after aligning them I got it to start, but it knocks a lot, I've moved the valves and it continues with the metallic knock, it really keeps me awake. Could you advise me on something to solve this problem please?
I'm happy to know that they're there are people out there that still work on small engines. Keep up the good work and pass the knowledge down to the youth.
If you look in the description of my video I have the manual and the installation guide for the piston rings it should have the parts list with the part numbers. Then you take the part number and look it up on Amazon or Ebay
Great video. Well explained. Wish I had found this video before missed mine up. Broke my piston rings and the oiler arm on the rod cap. Ordered new ones off Amazon. But it was the wrong size. Any suggestions? ( I have a Honda 160cc engine.)
I have watched both of your videos - GREAT. I have a GCV 190 that has the exhaust valve guide protruding above the housing (as compared to the intake side). I am thinking of removing and replacing it without disassembling the whole engine. It seems to be stuck/frozen in the housing I cannot find any info online. Have you removed one and if so how? Do you know where I could purchase one? Sure would like to see at least a picture it.
Take a picture of it and send it to my email so that I can better assist you. I need to see exactly what you're talking about. Jackofalltradesdre@gmail.com
Great instruction on teardown and reassembly of a Honda GVC190 motor! But I don't think You fixed Your original problem. It appears that Your exhaust valve guide has moved which caused the bent valve. You didn't cover adjusting the valves in this 2nd part but it looks like that valve guide has moved. Your problem will return if not fixed! You tell Me? After I reseated my valve guide in the head my exhaust valve is stuck. That is how I found Your video. I'm subscribed now. Great information and help to us small engine guys!
You are so right the valve did need adjusting, It was off quite a bit. Lol So I created a separate video for it so that the video wouldn't be so long. ua-cam.com/video/rb4a-FTz5Js/v-deo.html Thanks for the feedback. Small Engine guys gotta stick together.
Watching your video again since I am reassembling my GVC190. You should have lapped that new exhaust valve with valve grinding compound to seat it. And where are your valve stem seals that go between the valve spring and the head? We all learn from each other!
@monkeywentbananas you know that's weird on the exhaust valve when I removed it it didn't have a seal. I wonder what it's seized did it chew it up or disintegrated it. I wonder will that caused a problem it runs fine. Thank you for a lot of great information. Iron sharpens iron
Thanks for the reply! I believe that the original exhaust seal was made out of rubber. Mine was gone too! Honda has a new seal available that is similar to the intake side made out of metal and rubber. Honda PN 12209-ZMO-003.
You are the man!!!!! If everybody did videos like you, people wouldn't need to take engines to mechanics. Thanks again.
Thank you, I'm glad that my video could help you

Gcv190 timing belt

Most shops will not work on these because there no money in it and they say just buy new unit
I still work on them but mostly during winter months 😊

Awesome job brother!!!

Where can I find the current piston rings and rod cap for my Honda 160cc engine?

Just experienced this protruding exhaust value guide today. Find a small socket that fits the guide and gently tap with a hammer until reset.
Todo muy bien esplicado

@@monkeywentbananas thank you I'll make sure I get this and put this in
Respect
Dont put valve cover on TIL LAST. Check clearances for timing.
I would have lapped it. just so the new valve can sit right.
