Re: No Start Problem 850 94

I just don't buy the sluggish valve theory. The valve springs are very strong and I think it would take more than a little goo to keep them open. Also the car would be able to start with even a few slightly stuck open valves. I have read posts about bad connections on the coils and I think there is a TSB about it. It sounds like gas fouled plugs to me , not stuck valves.

Do you ever think about how many cars never see 4000 RPM . This gooey stuck valve problem should plague all cars if it is true.
