Now, bear with me, as I haven't a clue what I'm saying, just repeating what Andy has told me to say:
The engine is brand new, but one of the valves stays open. He's used a boroscope on it and there is absolutely nothing in there that's in the way. He tapped it lightly with a rubber mallet and is moved slightly and stopped, still open. What could cause this? |

Is the fuel thats in the tank been there for more than a few months?? Don't laugh, this can cause seized valves.. |
