That was actually going to be the subject of my next posting...but I'll wait and see if that is my problem first... Although, it might be a good time to let everyone know the method anyhow. It would be good information for all to have...

I would assume that it would start with having the offending cylinder's piston at TDC to keep teh valve from falling in, and maybe a rope or something in the spark plug hole to keep things tight and prevent damage to the valve/piston...

But do tell!
It would be sort of nice if that were my problem...then I could send your pushrods back to complete your set again...
