I need some serious help here, so I needed my head rebuilt on my 2015 yz250F so I did a bunch of research and found a guy out here that was local and figured I’d give him a go. Well that turned out into a 3 month run around. Anyways I ended up getting my rebuilt head back and everything looks great. unfortunately it was late so I was in the middle of moving from Tennessee to Michigan, which is where the shop was. So 3 weeks later here I am putting it all back together.
On the last valve bucket I got some major resistance ( exhaust valve kick starter side), it got stuck, so I massaged it out and tried that exact same bucket in the other exhaust valve and it got amazingly. Obviously I didn’t leave it in there but while I was at it I tried the bucket from said valve and it also did not fit. So it seems to be an issue with this valve site not the bucket. Does anyone know what to do? I’m pretty tired of taking this thing apart and putting it back together and it’s been apart since the whole head extravaganza began so it’s pretty useless at this point.
Thanks in advance for the help and allowing a guy to blow off some steam in a rant.

Maybe there is a little burr. Sand paper might do the trick.
