How do you guys get the new valve stems on? I got the head off the car and old valve stems off but cant for the life of me get them on. I got a kit with new ones and a "straw" im assuming to guide them on straight but they dont seem to want to go on. I akready tried hitting one on with a deep dwell socket and destroyed it. Any ideas guys? They just seem like they wont go down far like the old ones were. |

Can you post a picture of them. Normally they push on pretty easy. |
