Two them looked bad, one looked worn down from use the other looked like it
had been beating against something. It was not mushroomed it had chunks
broken off and it was beginning to where on the valve spring keep. A few of
the valve stems looked slightly musroomed though even if the adjusters did
not show. At $2 ea. I decided to replace them all. I might still have the
bad ones, if I do I will send you a pic of them.
