darn valves
hi I have a 90 talon tsi awd and all the intake valves are sticking open a bit. I got the car as a project it ran jest fine except it had a nock. it was the balance shafts had spun the bearings so they were bouncing a round. so I jest did the elimination kit for the balance shafts and put a new bearing in the lower end mains and rods bearing. I had to get a good used crank cuz the mains had some nice groves in it and it was cheaper to get a used one then getting the crank out of the car machined. all the bearings oil clearance are with in spec. so I got the motor back in and start jest fine and ran it for a hour or two did not drive it I did this to let the bearing brake in a bit and to see if there were any other problems and no insurance on the car. so I went the next day to move the car and would not start and pulled the plugs and it was flooded but there was no compression a cross all cylinder I found out cuz it was cranking over fast with the plugs in and cranks the same speed with the plugs out. so I had a friend see if any air was coming out of the plug holes and no air came out so pulled the valve cover and tapits on the intake side were all a bit loose. when I had the motor out and before I pulled the motor it was all tight. I can take a screwdriver and pop them back up but when the cam push is it down the valve does not come all the way back up. the timing is on. I have no idea what would make this happen. I need some help to figure this out I really don’t want to have to pull the head. it has all new gaskets. I did not put the them in the kid I got the car from did and did not time it right. he had the oil pump off and the valves to the crank timing was right. I am open to idea to solve this problem.
