So I'm trying to resurrect this 76 (or is it a 75?) that I just bought and it doesn't have compression on the #4 (rear right) cylinder. After some tests with compressed air it's clear that the intake valve isn't closing. I pulled the valve cover and the rockers move OK but that valve does not close all the way. Everything else looks good.
I have a lift but was wondering if I could pull that head without dropping the engine. It looks like there is room but I'm not sure about the engine tin etc. Seems like either the valve is bent or somehow stuck and maybe I can just fix the one thing there. Anyone pull heads while the engine is still in the car? |
