Gentile Alfisti,
Investigating the possible cause of an intermittent miss in my 2L GTV, I was 
checking the valve clearances and discovered bits of the valve seal beneath the 
no. 2 intake follower.  There was the fine spring and a few shards of green 
plastic.  Has anyone ever seen a stem seal come apart like this? No evident 
smoke, which is surprising.  Still, I don't think it's prudent to drive the 250 
miles or so to the convention with this known problem.  Can a valve stem seal 
be replaced with the head on the car?  Please talk to me Digest.
