How do you know when your car valves need replacing?

Usually it's not trivial to find out that valves have to be replaced. Some common cases are: timing belt was broken and valves were bent, one or more valves where burn or have mechanical defect. The best way is just to look at valves, it might involve removal of cylinder head unless you have a optical fiber which allows to look in combustion chambers without opening it.

What are sodium cooled valves and how they work?

Sodium is a solid at room temperature and becomes a liquid at 97.5 degrees Celsius. Sodium cooled valves are exhaust valves in a cylinder head of an engine that open to release exhaust gasses that were formed due to combustion of fuel and air inside the cylinders and typically get very hot. The sodium cooled valves and exhaust valves filled with sodium inside, the sodium helps the valves be cooler than if they were just solid.
