Since i got my new motor back i had blue smoke on start up, so i went head and started to change my valve seals. since leak down and compression test checked out. i was on cyl #7 and i had forgot to fill the cyl up with rope and move the piston up...well.. i took the spring off, then i pull the seal off and the valve falls into the cly. doesnt feel like the valve is still in the guild either, the pistion must be to low. anyone have any ideas on how to fish it out or am i out of luck and have to take the head off? tried to use a pick up tool magnet but they seem to be to big.
