Allis G stuck valves

I recently bought a 49 G that had been sitting for 8 years. After going thru and tuning it up, I noticed I wasn't getting compression and could see stuck valves thru the spark plug holes. Prior to this when cranking over I had a "tough spot" every 1 revolution of the crank, so I put marvel mystery oil in each of the cylinders to let her sit and that freed her up. I then began to spray Sea foam "Deep Creep" onto the valve stems I could see thru the holes and managed to get 2 of the 4 valves I could see to move up and down. 2 others will move down if I tap them down but then will stick open.
Any suggestions? Need more lube or broken valve springs? I assume I can get at the valve train thru the side cover and by taking off the head? Anything else I should know? Thanks!

Tom, you'll have to pull the side cover to see anything. Pulling the head will have to be done to remove the valves.E-mail me and I'll send you some other info that will help.

Cool! I swiped my neighbors 49 G from his barn as a suprise to get running for him. This thing has set for about 15 years & he has been dealing with some health issues, It has bothered him that his G & Farmall Super H have not been used. I got the H going on saturday & started on the G sunday. Cleaned the fuel system & got spark now. I picked up a new battery, points/condenser/plugs & ignition switch. I think this is a ground positive system right? I had a couple valves stuck with 0-5 lbs of compression & 2 cylinders @ 30 lbs. What should be the comp? I still have a couple valves that rotate stiff in a couple spots (I can see carbon on the valve underside). I used Marvel oil & Deep Creep also & it seems to be working.
Sorry to hijack the post but I cant wait to suprise the ol guy. e-mail [email protected] if needed
