Default Decarbonizing My 782

Hello
Well the 782 really gave some problems wanting to run and cleaned the carb.(several times) and noticed it ran well till it got hot so I removed the heads on both sides(which fell off after removing the bolts) and I took out the valves and polished them and I don't understand why I am unable to find a C clamp valve spring compessor for sale in my town.Well since my hands are really swollen & sore I compressed the springs a different way, I compressed the springs with a vise grip and then put a plastic tie strap on bothe sides of the exposed are of the spring released the vise grip and they held. I then put them in put the retention clips in and cut off the tie straps with wire snips.Worked great.:biggrin2.gif:
