How do these valves look?
Thought I would take a look while I have the exhaust off, what do you think of these?
This is cyl #5, I am guessing worn valve guides, thus the leak. The motor has been sitting for about 3 months without starting, so does this look that bad? http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1177479135.jpg This is cyl #3, what is that white stuff on the valve? Is that normal? http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1177479235.jpg Your thoughts and opinions are appreciated... Thanks |
My guess is that you are pumping oil past your oil rings. The deposits on the valves are from burning oil.
The wet cylinder would warrant at least a top end inspection. It also looks like your cam towers are leaking where they seal to the heads. Time for some work and perhaps time to look for a replacement. Only a top end inspection will tell for sure. |
