Re: Problem Found-NOT the head gasket......EXhaust Valve gone Posted by Bill Homer [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Problem Found-NOT the head gasket......EXhaust Valve gone, Name Left Blank, Sat, 16 Mar 2019 15:56:55 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Sounds like whoever did the previous head gasket replacement (which may have been due to deteriorated antifreeze from never changing it) cheaped out and did the bare minimum required work, i.e. just replaced the head gasket, but did not send the head out for cleaning, surfacing, valve grinding, nor did they replace the valve stem seals or valve guides.
What is the spec for maximum extension on the timing chain guide plunger? Might be time for a replacement chain.
