Thank you all. Noted on the followers; I'll remember to post the outcome in case anyone might find it helpful.

Thanks, the truth is I never did the valve clearance adjustment, and I'm a little unsure about how to get it right, I have the Haynes –and some videos, but I suppose there is nothing like just tryin ...

Doing a rebuild on my '79 924 2.0L. The head is at the machine shop right now and the machinist says everything looks mostly fine, but he wants to do a standard valve lapping.

My worry is the weird ...

The truth is, the lack of information about it worries me a little. I found a couple of people talking about it. I can only find one, but both were talking about the same:

Thank you both, @Riggard, indeed I have two threaded rods there, top and bottom –fixed with blue Loctite, which makes it much easier to install/remove the WUR.

Unless you are giving them away for free I’m afraid it's not an option right now

As a side note: the people from missingparts.de are the best, amazing client service!

Because of the type of problem I'm dealing with, do you think the basic www.missingparts.de WUR-repair kit would be enough, or am I dealing with something else?

Well…funny enough…since I still had the CIS rig hooked up, I ran one last check on the WUR… and it’s leaking again. Not dramatic, but it won’t seal. The cleaning seemed to help for a bit, bu ...
