Both exhaust valve stems on drivers side head are strikingly white. The other bank is a pretty normal brown. See pics below.
Research on this board revealed contradictory schools of opinion. One states that the white is caused by fuel entering the exhaust manifold (weak spring "fluttering" or too much lash). The other attributes white residue to a lean AFM (like spark plugs).
Given these theories, and since the gap (lash) is within spec for both white valves. it's reasonable to suspect that either: both injectors on the driver side are failing or the spring assembly on that side is weak.
I'd appreciate some other opinions.
