valve help please... (starmarvin maybe?)

[saltshaker185]

So i've found out that my 6th cylinder exhaust valve is not sealing properly and i am only getting about 100 as far as compression on that one... it seems to change at random however and seals at sometimes and doesnt at others. I also have a valve ticking in the 6th cylinder, but am not sure if it is this valve or not...

This seems to be the idle problem that i have brought up in the past... soo i guess my question is, anyway to fix it with out pulling the head?

i believe not. i have delt with valves when my timing was off.

you can switch to a higher weight oil, that'll make your ticking noise go away

how to check? and its only one of the valves?? so its ethier bent, or the seal is messed...

It's one of several problems:

1. You have a bad sagging valvespring, this can be fixed with the head on.
2. You have a lightly bent valve. This can only happen if the valvespring is sagging or if you overrev the engine.
3. You have burnt a valve so badly that it no longer seals. If it happens to one, it's likely to be happening to all of them, and would be costly.
