    Sorry Pat, I thought Dave was a BBC guy. There are tools you can buy that allow you to change valve springs with the head installed. You pump compressed air into a cylinder, then you use the tool to release the valve keeper. You can shim the springs to get some more tension on them, or replace them with new ones. Pat can advise better on that though.
