... Yeah, I think your probably right. My manuals are in storage and it's been 3 years since I pulled a JV head, sooooo.... If you think the oil is backing up...
The small valve is known as a jet-valve, it provides air-only to the combustion chamber, to create a swirl, for more efficient burning. It looks good on paper,...
