New member...first post. So I'm in the middle of a top end rebuild on our '83 110, and I've come across conflicting info for the valve stem seal. I have the '81-'84 Honda service manual, and for the valve reassembly, it shows the lone valve stem seal going on the intake valve. However, I've read on some forums that it should actually go on the exhaust valve because of the way the motor sits...the exhaust valve is down and would be more prone to oil blow-by. Can someone confirm where the steam seal actually goes...from experience of putting the valves back together? TIA

Welcome,
The seal goes on the exhaust valve.
