[mariner blue]

A while back I posted that I had a bent push rod, well it happened again. Took the rocker arms down to the mechanic..they look fine. I bought the car at the beginning of the summer from an ex state policeman who hadn't run it for three years.

The mechanic says that it is either a bad spring or a stuck valve since it has done after I replaced it.

How can I tell which one and if it is the valve....any easy way to do that without taking off the waterpump, intake manifold, head gasket etc.

And if I do do that, I should just be able to clean it in the car right? jim
