Well guys, I have a BAD feeling about what happened today when I attempted to change my valve springs.
I applied pressure to cyl.2 and had already removed the rocker assembly. I heard air whooshing through the motor and coming out the exhaust. Lovely... time for a valve job huh? i figure thats the deal. Oddly though, compression was the same as the 1 cyl which was not passing air....
Now for the concerning part, cyl. 4 was passing air, but i could feel the air escaping through the pushrod holes!!!! Do I have a bad headgasket or are my rings shot?
Please help, its getting ripped apart tomorrow and i need to know what to keep headsup for. I have been burning oil on startup lately and assumed that the problem was valve seals.
Thanks guys, im really feeling sick about this..
