BADBOY-DON will become famous soon enough
Thanks for the elightin' post....That old Besson that I borrowed did have plastic valve guides, white ones....and due to the wear on the plastic guides, one had to be very very careful in pulling and replacing a valve.
More than just a few times..those valves would rotate slightly, while tighting the round upper valve caps, which would give some pretty "strange-fluffiness and half valve noises that sounded like an ally-cat with a bad case of "distemper:)

plp...my friend!
WOULD YOU PUT IN A GOOD WORD WITH TOM TURNER THAT I STILL COVET HIS BEAUTIFUL OLD BOSTON STAAAAAAAAR!
