Rich,
I tried to add a pic in a p.m I sent you but could not do it. Can anyone tell me if looking at this pic there is an indication if the valves are burned or bad?The car has low compression and is near impossible to tune.The pic is of cylinders 1 and 2. Thanks. |

Judging by your pictures, you have already put more work into this than it would take to remove the engine...

I dont know how long it takes to drop the engine Once you've done it a few times, you can do it in 30 minutes or so ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Andy |
