the root of that my guess is the CVCC valve there, is no good. how or why? takes, looking at it, and measuring play(Clearances) there, per the FSM. and missing parts there, or damaged seals, and rings/gaskets there. Yes the how or whys is irrelevant at this point, agree.
it's not spark. sorry,.... Okie, good to know also.
it could just as well be the main intake valve bad. (guide) Maybe?
when i do heads, the head shop does this. including pressure checks, and for guide wear, I asked one local shop with over 30 years of experience and the guy was too vague about this.
i can not do heads, i let machine shops do that magic, we did this in school but we had a full shop there for that. (lots of steps.....)
Remember this was a poors man rebuild but I knew the risks.
if a rebuilt head is too much, get a good SI head. If i lived in PR, (wish i could) Really looking forward too meet you, please do.
probably the best cars are 1995. (not too old and not chock-a-block full of computers, ABS< Bags, and expensive system hard to fix or vastly expensive parts....)Totally agree. Yes sir. Like I said, the Si head would be my option. First let me get the valve holder form the US guy (as we speak no movement on his part) and we'll take it from there.
Ok ill keep you updated.
