No, that is not a "dumb" question, only an inexperienced one. Many of us are not mechanics and learn as we go. Even simple questions/answers are helpful to others as this one was to you.

Yup, I knew ya had to do it on old gen motors, but there a some things you can get away with on these new ones, thought maybe the valves would stay put for some odd reason. I am under way now, so far soo good. Keeping my fingers crossed...
