Need Rope, Valve drop? Spring collapse? *Vids & pics*
 

Ok I was trying to figure out if my injector driver was working or not. This happened at light load. Basically idling. going 60km/h oil/fuel pressure ok.

car sounded like it was flooded, started dying and quit running. I shut the key off, thinking it was a dead battery causing the msd to ---- all over itself. tried to start the car again but when it started it ran shitty and trevor said it sounded like to was flooded so I tried to start it again but the starter just was clicking against the flywheel.

Check battery and it was 12volts but drained to 7volts when trying to start the car. turned the motor over by hand(thinking it was a deadspot in the flywheel and it sounded like the piston was smashing the valve)


pics,

exhaust valve that looks like it is smashed( number 4 piston)

the space under the left lobe on the #4 cyl. basically means something ain't right, because that should ride the camshaft all the way around
