To loosen a sticky valve in an engine, start by adding a high-quality engine oil or a dedicated valve cleaner to the engine oil system. Run the engine at idle for a short period to allow the lubricant to penetrate and free up the valve. If the problem persists, you may need to perform a more thorough cleaning or inspection, which could involve removing the valve cover and manually cleaning the valve and guides. Always consult your vehicle's service manual for specific guidelines.
