Should've been done when the head was off. Gotta watch "blowing carbon" from old engines. Seen a few valves bend/break from breaking loose that carbon. Had a 93 BMW 5 series I did that too, just a normal induction service. Car ran fine before, just a little sluggish. After the service, and a quick snap of the throttle from a dumbass lube tech bent a valve and the car wouldn't idle after that, ran fine about 3,000 RPMs Used a camera to look in the cylinder that was missing and found a bent valve
