how do you know that they are gone. i have some opinion that mine are not in the best condition. So for changing them i don't need to remove the head?

the car is early 320i with L-Jetronic

if your car smokes on start up and when driving agains conpresion

NOT one of the nicer jobs to do

and removing your head is a good idea you dont want to drop one of you vlaves down you block
just make sure you mark you flywheel and cam and sommer you belt before removing you head the last thing you need is to bend you valves on strar up ...lol....

the thing is i changed the head gasket some time ago couple months, and the fool i'm i didn't change the seals.
the car smokes but very little. the interesting thing is that some of the spark plugs are a bit oily only on one side?

thanks Kiril
