I'll have to read that a dozen or so times before I understand it and will probably have questions.
Before I get into that, though, here is something that came up while I was looking things over. Someone mentioned the valves so I got curious to see these. Surprise, but I actually know what these are for and how they work...sort of. My memories (not good) from high school auto shop seem to revolve around a cam shaft where the cams lift up these rods (found those!) which operate these spring loaded lifters which open and close the valves (am I close?). Since it was only two nuts I had a look at these. There is gray goo all over the inside under the valve cover. The rods are all in place except the inner rod on cylinder #1. It is just loose in it's hole and needs to go back under the spring loaded thing.
I am not entirely clear how to get it back under there and don't want to force anything without checking with you guys but I imagine it could run pretty rough under the circumstances. The gray sludge doesn't look good.
