Not in the head , well sort of. My bug crapped out and started strugglin about a half mile from my house felt like it was runnin on 3 cylinders.
The 1/2 side was soundin bad and gas was spurtin back out of the carb more than it ever should.
Anyways it had a push rod on number 1 slip of the dang rocker arm.
The valve cover cracked,one of the valve lashes was in the cover,the other was stillin place but smashed. the valve was stuck in the upmost position and the spring well it aint springy no more.
So how bad is that? I cant replace the spring with the dang head still on,tho I'm tempted to try. Logic says I need to pull the engine,pullthe head and check for damage ont the piston surface,check for damage on the head and react accordingly.God I'm sick of messin with this little booger.
So Godfather give me the scoop am I right and just dont wanna admit what I gotta do or is this somewhat common and there's an easy fix.
This seriously effects weather I've got a spare case or not so let me know what ya think. If I gotta pull it to figure it out Bobs gonna be waitin awhile on that case,If not maybe we can work a deal for the spare. Either way I'l make some calls for him,I know someone who might have a spare or 2?
