burnt valve How can you tell if you have a burnt valve? A couple of people told me that is what my problem is. My car started running really rough the other day while driving around town. I know its loading up on fuel really bad, but it feels like a very bad miss. Idle quality is very poor. Has anyone ever had a problem with a burnt valve?

Re: burnt valve Jim,
There a 3 things more likely to have happened than a burnt valve...
1) bent pushrod (if using stock pushrods)
2) bent valve
3) broken/weak valve spring
What valvetrain mods do you have (if any)? Have you had any over-revs recently?
