I would like to help you if possible. Could you post specifically what is wrong with the valve grinder. We have many, many small machine shops going out of business all over this part of the country. I have seen more than 1 B&D valve grinder go directly to the scrap yard along with some ancient Souix machines. And you can still get some parts for them. Biggest issue with the old machines is the valve stem runnout from old worn out chucks. Even on our old collet chuck machine, we have to dial indicate every stem before we can grind. Again, happy to help if I can.
