The car had sat four four years outside, sludge buildup etc. My guess is that when it was parked the #1 intake was open and the sludges and varnish locked it in that position. There was no pushrod either , probably the first time I bumped the starter , slack was created in the valvetrain and the #1 intake pushrod popped out and is now laying in the bottom of the pan. The lifter was still there and I got a new pushrod and put it in, soaked the springs and valve stems down with marvel Mystery Oil, did some careful " binging" on the valve stem tip with a little hammer and she started right up and drove like a dream, much more power too. But my question for u guys is how did it run so well before with an open intake valve. I dont get it. wouldnt it be baCKFIRING UP THRU THE CARB CONSTANTLY AND BARELY RUN, IT ACTUALLY RAN QUITE WELL WITH THE #1 cylinder out of comission. any ideas on this? neal Zimmerman, eugene oreogn -- http://www.fastmail.fm - The professional email service [AD removed for archives] ------------------------------------------------------------------- Get up to $1500.00 Fast and Easy!
