1930 Franklin stuck intake valves

[David P]

My 1930 Franklin coupe sat for a number of months at a body shop while she was getting new paint. I think it may have been outside without the hood on. Now I have two intake valves stuck in the open position. They are the first two going backwards from the front of the car. I tried putting some kerosene on the top of the spring letting it run down the valve stem and also lightly taping the spring and rocker to try and get it to free up. No luck. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

 

Thanks Dave
