sleeve seals

Just wondering can I get piston sleeve seals for a D17 gas motor. pulled sleeves to replace pistons and sleeves only to find the compression problem to be a burnt valve. also can a farm shop rebuild head using kit sold on Y/T store, valves, guides, springs and keepers. or do the valve seats need to be ground and lapped? thanks
 
Anytime you want to do a proper head job and change out some valves and guides you'll need to grind the valves and their seats. Also, not all new guides are ready for valves as they need to be reamed to the exact size. The new valves need to trued up and faced. It takes the special tools of a valve grinder, seat grinder, reamer, guides, stone facers, gauges etc to do it right. However, this is a simple everyday job for a tractor or automotive machine shop and the cost isn't generally all that big. This is the type job where the cost is really well worth the price. It takes someone that has done this work for awhile and has all the tools available. I don't think you'd be able to do it yourself with just hand tools and the results wouldn't be what you want.
 
oring for sleeves can be purchased through yt forums part store also along with the replacement valve seats that will aid you with the burnt valve promblem the four inch head has replaceable seats the 3 inch head doesnot.
