Keep looking! An oil burner isn't going to do you any good! The whole idea is to avoid having to open it up-- you just want to recondition the seals and gaskets that are easily accessible and avoid running up labor on machine shop work.

A valve job shouldn't be necessary with a motor with decent compression-- a valve adjustment wouldn't be a bad idea, though.

I'm not sure offhand what the compression should be-- check the FAQ.

Good luck!
