    Valve stem seal issue !

    Hi everyone,

    My daily 2l pinto keeps loosing his valve stem seal from their seats but only on exhaust side apparently. I have changed them with new ones Victor reinz but 2 months later same issue. I have tried also the "Top hat" from the CVH 1.8 but it doesn't fit correctly.
    It smells very bad every time I run it and I can't figure out how to fix this problem.

    Any of you have encountered this and have found a solution ?

    Cheers, Jo.

    Everything is standard except the springs. They come from a mild-road kent cam kit if I well remember.
