Interesting results. I'll list all the results here, previous results included. Cylinder #3 0psi straight test 0psi wet, 3ml oil added to cylinder 35psi push rods removed. Latest testing. 150psi only intake valve installed 60psi only exhaust push rod installed 45psi both push rods removed Cylinder #5 0psi straight test 0psi wet, 3ml oil added to cylinder 120 push rods removed Latest testing. 0psi only intake valve installed 0psi only exhaust push rod installed 115psi both push rods removed I made sure the cylinder filled with air before removing the intake rod. I think this head needs to go back to the machine shop that I paid to fix it.

You don't want to test the way we suggest so i guess you'll find out the hard way. I believe this thread has run it's course. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. 1 2  View All   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
