What is a valve?

A valve job is a process in engine maintenance where the cylinder head's valves, valve seats, and other components are cleaned, resurfaced, or replaced to restore proper engine performance. This procedure helps ensure a tight seal between the valves and the combustion chamber, preventing leaks and maintaining compression. A valve job typically includes inspecting for wear, grinding or replacing valves, and reseating them to improve efficiency. It is often necessary when an engine experiences power loss, rough idling, or excessive oil consumption.
