I did some more investigating yesterday.
It turns out Cyl. 5 has one intake valve that does not open at all. I put a camera in the cylinder and turned the crank.
I think the hydraulic valve lifter is faulty. If the spring was broken the valve would always be open.
Do you guys agree with my analysis?
I don't have the tools for this job, you need the AGA valve/timing tools to get the cam shaft out and remove the valve springs.
Who can do this work in Los Angeles?
