Valve Removal
Does anyone have an in-depth video of the valve removal on a K321 14HP? I have the spring compressed but the retaining rings that follow I have no idea how to get them off, can't get a snap ring to fit on the compressed lock-washer looking piece... Help?

No video but pictures, I'll post thumbnail sized pics, click for larger views.
The valve assembly consists of the valve, a spring, a retainer ( washer ) and two tapered keepers. Compress the valve assembly  Then you remove the two keepers ( they may spin around the valve stem )  ( sorry not very clear )  Unscrew the valve compressor and remove all components.

Thank you for the reply! Do the keepers just slide off the end of the stem, or do they some how come off the side of the stem?
After the spring is compressed, I see a round piece with a notch in it, a large washer type deal, and then another thicker round piece with a notch in it...

Got them taken off, thank you Jeff!!
Now my carburetor side is relatively clean, a bit of gunk in the valve guides but not bad. The valve (shaft) is relatively clean also. The exhaust side, on the other hand, has tons of gunk (black crap) inside where the spring sits and such on what I assume is the valve guide. Also, from the flat round top of the valve, about 1.5" down the shaft that whole part of the shaft is "burnt" as I would call it.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
